A wild and beautiful firecracker of a film, Yorgos Lanthimos’ (The Favourite, The Lobster) period sci-fi is all we have come to expect from this singular filmmaker – and more. When a young woman in Victorian England committed suicide, little did she know how much life lay in store for her. Re-animated by her de facto guardian, the scientist Dr Goodwin Baxter, Bella Baxter’s mind soon becomes increasingly alive to the opportunities the world offers. –LFF
