    Marina, 23, is growing up with her architect father in a factory town by the sea. Finding the human species strange and repellent, she keeps her distance, observing it instead through the songs of Suicide, the mammal documentaries of Sir David Attenborough, and the sexual-education lessons she receives from her only friend, Bella. Meanwhile, a stranger comes to town and challenges Marina to a foosball duel, and her father ritualistically prepares for his exit from the 20th century, which he considers “overrated.” Caught between the two men and her collaborator, Bella, Marina investigates the wondrous mystery of the human fauna in Tsangari’s uniquely “tender but deadpan anthropological black comedy … whose emotional power creeps up on you” (Sight & Sound).
