A patient, formally daring work — the cinematography lingers on empty rooms longer than most audiences will tolerate, but those who stay are rewarded with the most haunting final act of the year.
This film is broadly divided into three segments. The first shows clumps of meat drifting under the sea and eventually floating to the surface. The next, set in a black market on an American military base next to a seaside construction site, portrays a woman distributing meat to a throng of male laborers. The final segment takes place in a stalactite-laden cave from which a multitude of women emerge and move towards the sea en masse.

Critics & Reviews
3 featuredI walked in expecting another genre exercise and walked out feeling like I'd been eavesdropping on a confession. The lead performance is genuinely singular — a career-defining turn.
A few too many scenes feel borrowed from a better film, but the soundtrack and the production design carry the rest. Solid recommendation for fans of slow-burn European thrillers.
