Why we chose it

David Lowery (“A Ghost Story”) made a wild return to Camelot for A24, turning a medieval poem into a dark fairy tale of a kind cinemas hadn’t seen in years. A mysterious stranger appears at Arthur’s court and Dev Patel cuts off his head. The stranger picks it up, mounts his horse and rides away.

Synopsis

At Christmas a stranger, green from head to toe, rides into King Arthur’s hall and offers a game: anyone may strike him now, provided they take the same blow in a year’s time. Arthur’s young nephew Gawain takes his head off, and the stranger picks it up and leaves. Now Gawain has a year, and a long road ahead of him through ghosts, giants and thieves.
