A plainclothes policeman enlists the aid of a photo store clerk and a hotel chambermaid to recreate a series of harrowing images from a recent slate of serial killings in the coastal resort town of Kinetta. The reenactments give little insight into the actual crimes but instead provide an avenue for each of the characters to reveal their eccentricities. With little dialogue and deliberate pacing, Lanthimos explores the darker side of desire in this challenging, meditative work.
