How far will you go for acceptance?

Kinds of Kindness tells three distinct but thematically connected stories.

The first story follows Robert, a man whose every move is dictated by his domineering boss, leading him to desperate measures to reclaim his life.

The second tale centers on Daniel, a police officer whose wife returns after being lost at sea—but he suspects she may not be the woman she once was, spiraling into paranoia and delusion.

The final segment focuses on Emily, a cult member searching for a woman with the supernatural ability to raise the dead. As she grows more deeply involved in the cult's rituals, her obsession leads to a series of tragic events.

The absurd measures in which we go for acceptance, love, and community - and the people who exploit these measures. (Letterboxd)
