The late Kore-eda Hirokazu’s most complex film. A mother demands answers when her young son begins acting strangely. The school blames bullying. The teacher denies it. Then the film rewinds—and shows you the same events from three different perspectives. Each act rewrites what you thought you knew. Moneyball and The Social Network fans

Don’t let the provocative title fool you—this is a lean, electrifying heist film with a moral conscience. Based on Andreas Malm’s controversial manifesto, the movie follows eight young activists who plot to sabotage a Texas oil pipeline. Shot on 16mm, it moves like Heat but thinks like a debate club.

Without reading another review. Go in blind.
