Dogtooth

A desperate (or desperately mad) father tries to protect his three grown children from becoming contaminated by the outside world by confining them to a surreal domestic fantasy land. With a tall fence keeping them in, a secret telephone that only their mother knows about and a collection of cassette tapes to make all the bad words good - a 'zombie' is 'a little flower' - life for the three siblings is eerily sterile and constant; but it doesn't take much to send their world violently out of control. Winner of the Un Certain Regard Award at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.
