“A bad-taste laugh riot” – Damon Wise, Deadline
Opens August 14 | Underneath the Catalonian sun, a rich white American family lives in hedonistic isolation, seeking love and validation through one another, their designer wardrobes, and pop music. When an outsider infiltrates the family, buried tensions surface and blood ties are severed. Yorgos Lanthimos’ frequent collaborator Efthimis Filippou penned the script which gives this outrageous satire a Greek weird wave feel. Starring Callum Turner, Riley Keough, Jamie Bell, Lukas Gage, Elena Anaya, Tracy Letts, Elle Fanning and Pamela Anderson. ROSEBUSH PRUNING is an absurd and funny take down of the patriarchal family.
