Hidden Gems - Taxidermia


Taxidermia

Directed by Gyrogi Palfi

5 reasons to watch it!

1- Graphic, bizarre, absurdly funny, and yet graced with a strangely human heart.

2- Taxidermia will challenge, infuriate, entertain, and send you away question the largest questions of life. It is a vicious satire of Hungary’s recent history that also finds universal themes and couches them in a language so strange, so visually arresting that it simply cannot be ignored.

3- With only two films into his career, Pálfi has very clearly established himself as a true auteur, and the possessor of one of the most unique cinematic voices in the world.

4- One of the few films financed by Sundance and worth every penny.

5- Stunning cinematography, chilling score by Amon Tobin and superb acting.
