More about Kind of Kindness
The anthology series tells three different stories about sex cults, cannibalism and general debauchery.
As per the description of the movie, KINDS OF KINDNESS is a ''triptych fable, following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.''
