Description

This unpredictable and provocative film from Greece focuses on a family of five: mother, father, and three kids. They all live in a house at the outskirts of a city which is surrounded by a tall fence. The kids have never been outside that fence. They are being educated, entertained, bored and exercised in the manner that their parents deem appropriate, without any contact from the outside world. The film introduces us to a patently surreal situation, and it's darkly amusing to see what happens when flat normalcy infects outrageous absurdity.
