Circumcision

The Story

Filmed in first-person POV, "Circumcision" is a tragicomedy about an agnostic man, whose life is completely falling apart (and whose face we never see), until he comes to believe that his pre-teen son is the Messiah, destined to save the world.

Esteemed film critic Todd McCarthy called it “mind-boggling, riveting, and uncompromising. Grips you from the beginning and never lets go. I’ve never seen another film like it.” Director Phillip Noyce called it “brilliant, beautiful and original” and “a wonderfully inventive example of next-gen filmmaking”.  Producer Ram Bergman (Knives Out, The Last Jedi) called it a “great film”.Producer Nikos Karamigios (American Fiction) called it “extremely personal and emotionally powerful, yet very funny as well.
