Greek film eg Giorgos Lanthimos' film 'Dogtooth' won the 'Kingfisher Award' first prize at the 21st Ljubljana International Film Festival (LIFFE) held in Ljubljana 10th to 22nd of November 2010, in Slovenian capital, as explained by judges Goran Vojnović, Charlie Cockey, Frank L. Stavik the film has been awarded due to a creating “a most unique air of disquietude.  Executed with utter meticulousness, the film has been written and directed with accomplished precision. Communicating its message with ruthless immediacy, it opens windows to various debates. The work by does not appeal with its unspoken ambiguity, but, instead, astounds with its startling directness and clear vision of destructive isolation“ 'Dogtooth's an utopian family drama about teenagers growing up in an isolated family with parent’s desperate wish to protect them from any external influences: drama that already won awards on other international film festivals, there including one in Cannes - the best foreign language film at the Academy Awards. „The idea for Dogtooth came  from speculating about the future of family. How would it evolve in the future if it evolved at all( and what would happen if this social organism ceased existing as we know it? What would someone do to preserve at any cost and what would that do to the people involved? How distorted can bodies and minds become after being confined and shaped?“ said Yorgos Lanthimos about the film. Nothing is weird enough in nowadays! So does this. A black-comic drama that talks about family dysfunction, a cruel saga about self-harm and bizarre, an absurdist film for particular audience and an intimate film of psychological realism. The film contents violence, bizarre sexuality and unexpressed grief points, or how a child protection issue of one family can turn into an unsettling incestuous relationship.
