FAMILY THERAPY
Special Features: 2025 Oscar® Selection, Slovenia
[ODREŠITEV ZA ZAČETNIKE]
Deep in the Slovenian forest, the Kralj family lead a seemingly picture-perfect life in their incredibly curated glass house. But with all the pretentions of the nouveau riche, father Aleksander, his tightly wound wife Olivia and their brooding teenage daughter Agata, are hanging together by one incredibly fine thread. All it takes is a visit from Aleksander’s good-hearted 25-year-old-son Julien to bring everything crashing down. Born from a previous relationship, Julien is practically a stranger, allowing him to see past their bourgeois façade and reveal the family’s deepest deficiencies and darkest desires. Inspired by Pasolini’s TEOREMA, filmmaker Sonja Prosenc’s bristling dark comedy features wonderfully tuned performances, brilliant cinematography and a pulsing score from synthpop duo Silence. –Josh Gardner
