How India-Set Nepal-Shot ‘The Shameless’ Transitioned From Documentary to Adult Animation to Cannes Un Certain Regard Fiction Feature
Image
Bulgarian-American filmmaker Konstantin Bojanov’s Cannes Film Festival Un Certain Regard selection “The Shameless” has taken 14 years to come to fruition.

Bojanov previously directed the documentary “Invisible” (2005), followed by his Cannes-debuting fiction feature debut “Avé” (2011). Post “Avé” and prior to his 2017 Rotterdam selection “Light Thereafter,” which starred Barry Keoghan and Kim Bodnia, Bojanov acquired the rights to William Dalrymple’s 2009 book, “Nine Lives: In Search of the Sacred in Modern India.” The idea at the time was to make a documentary cross referencing four different stories from the book, including one of a sex worker in Karnataka, southern India.

Bojanov scoured India to find real stories similar to the ones in the book and in 2014 he started filming in Karnataka, with a view to using the footage to attract finance for a feature-length documentary. During his research, the filmmaker also came across a young girl growing up in a family...

The Killing Of A Sacred Deer trailer
Tony Sokol Aug 17, 2017

Colin Farrell and Nicole Kidman trade anesthesia hits in the new The Killing Of A Sacred Deer trailer.

“A surgeon never kills a patient,” Colin Farrell’s doctor character says in the new trailer for the upcoming A24 psychological horror film The Killing Of A Sacred Deer. “An anesthesiologist can kill a patient but a surgeon never can.”

The film, which co-stars Nicole Kidman and Barry Keoghan (Light Thereafter), is a slow-burning revenge drama in scrubs. The trailer shows Farrell bonding with a young patient, while bits of family history drop like medicine into an IV. Kidman’s character looks like she’s put out from the waist down as the surgical air gets thicker. The Killing Of A Sacred Deer was directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. The screenplay was written by Lanthimos and Efthymis Filippou.

The Killing of a Sacred Deer premiered in competition at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival.
