The 'Alpe' company offers family and friends of the recently deceased a unique service to help alleviate the grieving process by hiring actors to impersonate the dead. The third feature from Yorgos Lanthimos (Killing of a Sacred Deer) is an absurd black comedy – about death, substitutes and whether, ultimately, we may all be playing a role.

On 12 September 1919, a troop of some three hundred soldiers under the leadership of the flamboyant war-loving Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio swooped into the Northern-Adriatic port town of Fiume, now Rijeka, wanting to annex the city to Italy. Over the course of the next 16 months, during what is regarded as one of the most bizarre militant sieges of all time his official photography team captured over 10,000 images. A century later, Igor Bezinović orchestrates a direct-action history lesson focused on the siege and its modern-day implications.
