“Its message is timeless. Its performances? Flawless … A cautionary tale dedicated to the fragility of the family structure…a showcase of a radically talented filmmaker and a dedication to the painful reality of love.” – The Playlist
At once pressure-cooker thriller and intimate family drama, The Killing of Two Lovers sees a desperate father fight his inner demons in the hopes of keeping his family together.
Small town rural Utah, David and his estranged wife, Nikki, are trying to amicably co-parent their kids during a trial separation. When David discovers Nikki has a new lover, both his jealousy and fear of losing his family creates an explosive combination, but will his temper get the better of him or will this moment be a test of will and preservation.
With comparison’s to Noah Baumbach’s Marriage Story, and Lynne Ramsay’s You Were Never Really Here (SWIFF’19), this assured debut from Robert Machoian oozes with authenticity and raw-nerve emotion, marking the arrival of an exciting new auteur.
