The Fox (CTC)

Nick, affable heir to a wealthy rural landowner, discovers his fiancée, Kori, is cheating on him and wants nothing more than to just fix the problem. One night, he captures a rogue Fox (Olivia Coleman), and she offers him a trade-off: if Nick lets her live, the Fox will help him save his relationship. All he has to do is push Kori into a magic hole with the power to change her into the perfect partner. Nick follows the Fox’s advice and the Kori who re-emerges seems to be everything he ever wanted. Until her strange new quirks make him question his decision.

Featuring an all-star cast, including honorary Australian screen legend Sam Neill and Academy Award winner Olivia Coleman as Magpie and the titular Fox, The Fox explores the struggle between domestication, commitment and stability against the wild and primal desire for freedom, novelty and lust.

Cast: Jai Courtney, Emily Browning, Damon Herriman, Claudia Doumit, Zlatko Burić, Frankie J. Holden, Heather Mitchell, Kim Gyngell, Sam Neill as The Magpie, with Miranda Otto and Olivia Colman as The Fox.

Director: Dario Russo

"An absurdly funny, unforgettable fairytale farce." INVERSE

"It’s inventive in its savagery, almost always perturbing, but succeeds at the kind of absurd genre blend that made Yorgos Lanthimos a household name." ROBEREBERT

"Through a comedic lens, this film delivers a thought-provoking story about hopes, desires, and the shortcuts offered to fulfill them at a price." AWARDS BUZZ
