breaking cycles of abuse

Her films like 'You Were Never Really Here' and 'We Need to Talk About Kevin' unflinchingly examine cycles of trauma, violence, and psychological damage passed between generations.

Works such as 'The Invitation' and 'Destroyer' explore how past trauma and abuse shape present relationships, power dynamics, and the struggle to break free from destructive patterns.

Her films including 'Portrait of a Lady on Fire' and 'Tomboy' sensitively depict how individuals resist inherited constraints and societal cycles of control and repression.
