the lobster (2015). directed by yorgos lanthimos.


is the word dystopian? stretch the idea a bit more, when being single is seen pathetic and a loser. and in any society that craves conformity, disregarding individual struggles, we will see power and violence being disproportionately used to force people to conform. director lanthimos is greek, i don't know if this is a meditation about the country being forced to submit under the heels of stronger, richer neighbours in the eurozone. 

maybe. do we need to be helpless? no.
