Chevalier

Six men on a fishing trip in the Aegean Sea spontaneously agree to a competition: whoever is judged best at everything by the end of the trip wins a chevalier ring. Everything becomes a metric — sleep quality, cholesterol levels, phone manner, erection firmness. Tsangari's absurdist masterpiece is the funniest and most precise film about masculinity I have seen. It doesn't argue a thesis; it simply observes, with anthropological patience, how men behave when status is the only currency. The Aegean has never looked more beautiful or more ridiculous.
