ANGELIKA’S NOTE

One of the most - if not the most - anticipated films of 2023, Academy Award nominee Greta Gerwig (LADY BIRD, LITTLE WOMEN) returns to the helm with BARBIE, a glowing, glamorous, hot-pink-laden fantasy that delves into the eternal question of what makes us human. Margot Robbie (BABYLON, BIRDS OF PREY) stars as Barbie, living in Barbie Land, a community rich with the contributions Barbies have made to society. But when Barbie begins to question her own existence, she journeys to the Real World for answers. The Independent (UK) raves, "Barbie is one of the most inventive, immaculately crafted and surprising mainstream films in recent memory -- a testament to what can be achieved within even the deepest bowels of capitalism."

SYNOPSIS

To live in Barbie Land is to be a perfect being in a perfect place. Unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you’re a Ken.
