A Bigger Splash

Marianne (Tilda Swinton), an ageing rock star, is enjoying an extended holiday on a Sicilian island, following career-threatening throat surgery, with filmmaker boyfriend Paul (Schoenaerts, Rust And Bone). Their peace is disrupted when Harry (Ralph Fiennes) – Marianne’s bombastic, avidly freethinking ex – and his precocious daughter, Penelope (Dakota Johnson), turn up to stay, uninvited. The ensuing friction, jealousy, passionate intrigue and fierce recriminations fuel Luca Guadagnino’s often funny, constantly edgy film inspired by Jacques Deray’s 1969 psychological drama La Piscine.
