Full Plot Details

Christian is the respected curator of a contemporary art museum, a divorced but devoted father of two who drives an electric car and supports good causes. His next show is "The Square", an installation which invites passersby to altruism, reminding them of their role as responsible fellow human beings. But sometimes, it is difficult to live up to your own ideals: Christian's foolish response to the theft of his phone drags him into shameful situations. Meanwhile, the museum's PR agency has created an unexpected campaign for "The Square". The response is overblown and sends Christian, as well as the museum, into an existential crisis.

Movie Reviews

Scroll.in - 10/10 by Aakash KarkareWith The Square, writer-director Ruben Ostlund finally lives up to the potential seen in his previous films.
GeekRex - 10/10 by Kyle PinionThis is a finely honed machine that hits a perfect blend of thoughtful and intellectual commentary, while also being impossible to pry your eyes away from, minute by minute.
ComingSoon.net - 10/10 by Alan CernyThe Square is a brilliant examination of the motivations of our own personal morality, and a truly amazing comedy.
MaraMovies.com - 10/10 by Mara ReinsteinThe sharply observed, wryly funny work for addresses difficult questions about race and class that most people usually just whisper about.
Film Journal International - 10/10 by Erica AbeelThis Palme d'Or winner is a meaty film of ideas with instant-classic set-pieces and moments of mind-blowing freakiness, a stunning follow-up to Force Majeure.
Chicago Reader - 10/10 by J. R. JonesThe Square is an art installation outside the museum, a little zone in which "we all share equal rights and obligations," and that concept informs much of the film's satire.
Cinema em Cena - 10/10 by Pablo VillaçaThe movie makes the audience laugh while looking covering its eyes in embarrassment for the characters. [Full review in Portuguese.]
Another Gaze - 10/10 by Chelsea Phillips-CarrPresenting itself as a balanced satire of everyone, Östlund's "I hate all people equally" take is never satisfying.
CineVue - 10/10 by Tom DugginsA film as funny as it is stingingly accurate about the way in which the digital era encourages us to perform altruism whilst sheltering our private vanities and resentments.
The Big Issue - 10/10 by Edward LawrensonThe Square is a fiercely witty comedy that requires and rewards patience from us...but there is also something blunt and ill-conceived about The Square's central thrust....the film is principally a social critique, but it's heavy-handed, even moralistic.
