We Need To Talk About Kevin

Radically reimagining the nature-or-nurture novel, director Lynne Ramsay – and star Tilda Swinton – transform the text of Lionel Shriver’s polarising book into a chilling film rightfully venerated for its unforgettable visual language.

Eva puts her ambitions and career aside to give birth to Kevin. The relationship between mother and son is difficult from the very first years. When he does something irrational and unforgivable in the eyes of the community, Eva grapples with her own feelings of grief and responsibility.
