Tsangari proves she's one of the freshest voices in European cinema with this offbeat character piece. Recommended.

...understreger kunstfilmens svære balancegang, hvor absurdismen og formeksperimenterne står stærkest, hvis vi et sted undervejs i alle de teoretiske øvelser også bliver rørt og føler noget for vores personer.

In the industrial coastal town of Attenberg, a sexually inexperienced 23-year-old woman named Marina lives with her terminally ill father, Spyros. She finds solace in the wildlife documentaries of Sir David Attenborough, Suicide's songs, and her friend Bella's sex education lessons. When a stranger arrives in town, Marina embarks on her first sexual relationship, which she keeps secret from her father. As Spyros approaches death, Marina asks Bella to sleep with her father as a favor for the dying man.
