2022's Tár is, at its core, a Perestroika film. Deep below the orchestral movements and GDR iconography lies a near-perfect recreation of the driving animus of late-stage Soviet leadership — that dangerous mix of hubris and paranoia.

Celebrating the freedom of uncertainty and the pleasure of yearning for another, Desire, I Want To Turn Into You (2023) stretches itself far past the reach of her previous release, and improves upon it in almost every way.

The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) is a movie about the weight of "why," and the damage done when it overtakes what we are.

Through of her actions onscreen and behind the camera, Dasha Nekrasova makes it clear that The Scary of 61st was a very important project for the auteur — but not a particularly serious one.
