A disorienting, stylish descent into jealousy and violence, with jarring editing and a cold, surreal atmosphere that keeps you unsettled.

It involves Anna (who owns the farm), her husband Marco (who kills prostitutes in his spare time) and Gabriella (the very beautiful secretary).

How it feels: Eerie, absurd, dark and satirical. Slow-burning and demanding.
