After two boys have a bad fight on a playground, the parents of the “victim” invite the parents of the “bully” over to work out “the problem”. A polite discussion on parenting escalates into verbal warfare, with all four parents soon revealing their true colors. Unpredictable and shocking, the film hilariously exposes the hypocrisy lurking behind their well-mannered, polished façade. Briskly-paced, Carnage is an acting tour de force and was aptly called a lighter version of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Winner of the Leoncino Prize at the Venice Film Festival. English spoken.

Six years after Parasite, Korean director Bong Joon-ho is back with another biting satire (this time set in the distant future) with Robert Pattinson shining in the leading role(s). Its unlikely hero, Mickey Barnes, has found himself in the extraordinary circumstance of working for an employer who demands the ultimate commitment to the job… to die, for a living. »Combining the best parts of Snowpiercer and Okja into something new, this warm and wonderful film suggests that Bong loves people even more than he hates capitalism.« – IndieWire.
