Kinds of Kindness: A Quirky Anthology Film by Yorgos Lanthimos

A Collection of Odd Tales

Kinds of Kindness is a 2024 anthology film directed by Yorgos Lanthimos from a screenplay he co-wrote with Efthimis Filippou. The film stars Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, and Margaret Qualley. The film tells three separate stories, each of which explores a different kind of kindness.

The first story follows a man (Plemons) who seeks to break free from his predetermined path. The second story follows a cop (Stone) who questions her own beliefs. The third story follows a group of people (Dafoe, Qualley) who are trying to find meaning in their lives.

An Acquired Taste

Kinds of Kindness is a strange and challenging film. Lanthimos's trademark style is on full display, with his signature use of absurdist humor and deadpan delivery. The film is not for everyone, but it is sure to stay with you long after you see it.

UK Release

Kinds of Kindness will arrive in cinemas in the UK from 28 June. More information about the film can be found on the British Vogue website.
