Lynne presents us with a mosaic of film, not only in visuals but in scrambled sound too (many clues are in the beginning of the film). She and her husband Rory Kinnear (not that one) have adapted Lionel Shriver's novel (presumably which is told in a linear fashion?) into this most Roegish concoction (and it's interesting to see Luc Roeg as one of the producers).
Tilda Swinton is excellent, and in virtually every scene. Ezra Miller (The Perks of Being a Wallflower) and Jasper Newell are also both outstanding as Kevin. With John C Reilly.
Seamus McGarvey shot it - capturing the director's red theme - and the incredible sound design is by Paul Davies (71, Southcliffe, The American, Boy A). The editor Joe Bini cut Bad Lieutenant and Grizzly Man for Herzog. The music is by Johnny Greenwood but it's mainly a selection of artfully chosen songs and Japanese music.
Most interesting direction, attention to detail.
