Birth
Jonathan Glazer / US, 2004 / 99 min.
A woman falls under the spell of a boy who claims he’s her deceased husband in this beautifully designed gothic tale full of ambiguity. With a superb, subtle performance from Nicole Kidman. By the director of Under the Skin and The Zone of Interest.
Glazer’s underestimated metaphysical masterpiece is the ultimate mind-bender. Nicole Kidman shines as Anna, a widow from Manhattan who is about to marry Joseph (Danny Huston). Suddenly, a mysterious ten-year-old boy (Cameron Bright) appears from nowhere, claiming to be the reincarnation of Anna's deceased husband and turning their well-ordered, well-heeled world upside down.
