“In Almaty, a cash-strapped couple hatch a plan to solve their money troubles, but soon become embroiled in a toxic web of social media, violent criminality and spiralling greed. This exhilarating, take-no-prisoners horror offers a blood-soaked satire on the indignities of late-stage capitalism.”
– Press notes

“I like films that hurt you through the frame. I love the hyper-realism of Alexei German Sr., [David] Fincher, and [Alejandro González] Iñárritu. This pain within the frame has become an important part of my own style”
– Director Aitore Zholdaskali

“Sicko confirms [Aitore Zholdaskali] as a bold new talent. Although influenced by Korean horror – with its combination of gory violence, black humour and cutting social commentary – the film also offers distinctive reflections on contemporary Kazakh life.”
– Rachel Pronger / International Film Festival Rotterdam
