See the films the platforms disagree about most →A man lives in a bleak, industrial landscape with his girlfriend and their newborn child, which is a grotesque, inhuman baby that cries incessantly. He is plagued by bizarre and disturbing visions that blur the line between his grim reality and his nightmares. The film is a surreal journey into anxiety, parenthood, and existential dread.
