Our take
Sweeping five awards at the Venice Film Festival and receiving high praise from critics, Miss Violence is an under-known gem from the Greek Weird Wave film movement. Told with clinical control and a macabre tone, this gripping and chilling tale of a dysfunctional family is as disturbing as it gets.
