What is Kinds of Kindness about?

“Kinds of Kindness is a triptych fable, following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader,” the official synopsis reads.

The film stars Emma Stone (Poor Things), Jesse Plemons (Civil War), Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Margaret Qualley (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood), Hong Chau (The Menu), Joe Alwyn (Catherine Called Birdy), Mamoudou Athie (Jurassic World Dominion), and Hunter Schafer (Euphoria).

The script for Kinds of Kindness was co-written by Lanthimos and Efthimis Filippou. Lanthimos — who is known for 2009’s Dogtooth, 2015’s The Lobster, 2018’s The Favourite, and 2023’s Poor Things, among other titles — also produces the film alongside Ed Guiney, Andrew Lowe, and Kasia Malipan.

“With a feature film that only has one story, the audience can engage more actively because there is room to think about what is happening and apply your own logic,” Lanthimos previously said of Kinds of Kindness, via Searchlight Pictures. “With an anthology, you bring whatever you’ve been thinking about from the first story into the next. It is more complex and more engaging. Different people identify different themes, which is a hugely interesting structure.”

Kinds of Kindness releases in United States theaters on June 21, 2024, from Searchlight Pictures.
