SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved Alps, try these.

Attenberg poster 01

Movie / 2010 / Drama

Attenberg

Why this pick

Its deadpan rituals, emotionally inhibited people, and deliberately awkward physicality closely echo the cool, unsettling social logic of Alps.

L poster 02

Movie / 2012 / Drama / Thriller

L

Why this pick

A similarly austere Greek absurdist drama, built around a man whose arbitrary routines and relationships become quietly comic and disorienting.

Pity poster 03

Movie / 2018 / Drama

Pity

Why this pick

It shares Alps’ clinical framing and pitch-black humour, using performed emotion and bizarre everyday behavior to make grief deeply uncomfortable.

Chevalier poster 04

Movie / 2015 / Comedy / Drama

Chevalier

Why this pick

Its rigid games of judgment among friends offer the same dry, observant cruelty and unnerving sense that social rules have become absurdly literal.

The Killing of a Sacred Deer poster 05

Movie / 2017 / Drama

The Killing of a Sacred Deer

Why this pick

Lanthimos preserves the flat, controlled performances and moral unease of Alps, but channels them into a colder and more ominous family nightmare.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

The film centers on a night nurse in a hospital who provides special services to families who have recently lost their loved ones. The nurse is a member of a group called the Alps, whose members offer, for a fee, to play recently deceased during visits of their grieving relatives.
