Editorial
Chimney? Sparrow? That’s just the start of all the untameable commotion in this fuming domestic drama. Throwing a headless chicken, flaming feuds, and a scalding Maren Eggert into a combustible menagerie, the Zürchers unsettle a meticulous setup with viciousness and ominous spots of blood.
