We Need to Talk About Kevin

This conversation is long overdue.

A mother grapples with unbearable guilt as she traces the fractured years leading to a devastating act of violence perpetrated by her adolescent son. Through fragmented flashbacks and suffocating psychological tension, Lynne Ramsay charts the insidious evolution of a toxic bond, interrogating the origins of evil: nature or nurture? The film dismantles maternal certainties, exposing how love curdles into poison and how a mother can become complicit through her own detachment.
