COOK F**K KILL | MIRA FORNAY

“If I was a girl, this would never have happened. Cook F**k Kill is not as lighthearted as that title makes it seem. Described as an “absurd drama”, the film is directed by a Czech filmmaker named Mira Forney and deals with domestic abuse – about a man who loves to cook, fuck, and, well, kill. “Seen through the prism of a metaphor, the film is an intimate story about family or ‘the most aggressive group within a society, with the exception of the army and the police’, as Fornaystates.” Meaning the family, how people inside their home are abusive even if they’re nice outside.
