June Kaohsiung Film Archive | The Lobster [15+]
Yorgos Lanthimos's defining masterpiece returns to the big screen for its 10th anniversary.
★ 2015 Cannes Film Festival Jury Prize
In a near-future society, single people are required to find a partner within 45 days or be transformed into an animal. David is forced to find a mate in the "Hotel." When he cannot adapt to this twisted matching system, he escapes to the forest and joins a group of "Loners" who reject love, only to find that another extreme set of rules is equally suffocating. Between love and loneliness, he gradually realizes that freedom may never have been an option.
