"If you stay inside, you are protected." Kino Lorber has revealed a brand new trailer for the 4K re-release of the iconically weird
Yorgos Lanthimos film titled
Dogtooth, which originally premiered back in 2009. Before he went on to make the hit films
The Lobster,
The Favourite,
Kinds of Kindness, and
Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos rocked the cinema world with
Dogtooth - which earned rave reviews at its initial Cannes Film Festival premiere before earning a surprise Best Foreign Language Film nomination in early 2011. A controlling, manipulative father locks his three adult offspring in a state of perpetual childhood by keeping them prisoner within the sprawling family compound with strict rules. Starring
Christos Stergioglou,
Mary Tsoni,
Christos Passalis, and
Michele Valley. Restored in 4K from the 35mm camera & sound negatives by Boo Productions and mk2 Films at Asterisk* Post and I Hear Voices sound studio. With color grading by Gregory Arvanitis and Thimios Bakatakis. And digital sound restoration by Landros Ntounis. The 4K restoration process was supervised Lanthimos. This film is definitely not for everyone, but it's a fabulous example of Yorgos' quirky, kinky, playful ideas & how he prefers narratives that go against the grain. Enjoy. //
