Ruben Östlund’s (Force Majeure) latest movie sets sail on a luxury cruise liner filled with grotesque caricatures of the super-wealthy: a Russian oligarch, British arms dealers and an idiosyncratic, alcoholic, Marxquoting captain (played by Woody Harrelson). This wickedly funny film follows models Carl and Yaya as they navigate the world of fashion while exploring the boundaries of their relationship. At first, all appears Instagrammable, but a storm is brewing, and heavy seasickness hits the passengers during the seven-course captain’s dinner. The cruise ends catastrophically. Carl and Yaya find themselves marooned on a desert island with a group of billionaires and one of the ship’s cleaners, and hierarchy is suddenly flipped upside down.
