Episode Details

Film thirty-nine of the festival and Zvyagintsev returns after nine years with Minotaur, a domestic thriller set in Russia in 2022 as the war in Ukraine begins. A jealous husband, a dead body, a country with no rules left to tether anyone. The greatest living Russian director has not softened. We talk about his return, the Chabrol source material, and what it means to make a film like this from exile.
