Resumen
Directed by Lynne Ramsay, 'We Need to Talk About Kevin' is an audacious exploration of the complex dynamics of motherhood and the inscrutable nature of evil. Based on Lionel Shriver's novel of the same name, the film delves into Eva's desperate attempts to understand and connect with her disturbed son. The narrative, structured through flashbacks, explores themes of parenting, guilt, and the indelible impact of one's actions on a family. Set in suburban Connecticut, the film culminates in a school massacre, highlighting the escalating violence and fear that pervaded American communities during the late 20th century.
