Insideis a 2023 psychological thriller film written by Ben Hopkins and directed by Vasilis Katsoupis in his feature directorial debut.[4] The film follows an art thief (Willem Dafoe) who is trapped inside a luxury penthouse, slowly losing his grip on reality.

Nemo, an art thief, tells a story of his childhood, in which a teacher asked him to choose three things to save in a house fire. Rather than his family, Nemo selected his cat, an AC/DC record, and his sketchbook. He reflects that the cat died and he lent the album to an acquaintance who did not return it, but he still has the sketchbook, saying "art is for keeps".


In the present day, disguised as a handyman, Nemo breaks into the Manhattan high-rise penthouse of a wealthy art collector in order to steal three works by Egon Schiele, but is unable to find Schiele's self-portrait. His attempt to leave sets off the security system and seals the apartment, and his contacts abandon him; his attempts to escape prove futile. A broken thermostat renders the penthouse too hot and then too cold, and Nemo struggles with a lack of food and water, save for timed sprinklers in an indoor garden. Following Nemo's entry through bird netting over the apartment's patio, a pigeon becomes trapped, starves, and dies while Nemo watches.


As weeks pass, Nemo goes hungry and suffers injuries as a result of his escape attempts, which focus on constructing an enormous scaffold from furniture to reach a skylight. He makes gradual progress in disassembling the frame around the skylight with tools he constructs from furniture. He develops an obsession with a young housekeeper, dubbed "Jasmine", whom he watches via a security camera feed that plays on the apartment television. In maddening frustration, she is right outside the front door on more than one occasion, but she does not hear him banging and yelling for her to open it, because she is wearing earphones while running the vacuum.


Nemo discovers a hidden passage in a closet that leads to a room containing the Schiele self-portrait and a collation of The Marriage of Heaven and Hell. Desperate, Nemo eats fish from the art collector's aquarium and dog food, eventually suffering from tooth decay and intermittent hallucinations. While removing bolts from the skylight, he falls to the ground and breaks his leg. He constructs a splint, but his health and sanity continue to deteriorate along with the apartment. Over time, he studies the apartment's art, creates his own artwork, and makes intricate drawings on the walls.


Nemo sets off a smoke alarm in an attempt to get help, flooding the penthouse in the process but attracting no outside attention. He leaves the art collector a note written on the walls, reiterating the story from his childhood and apologising for breaking into and destroying his home, but stating that it may have been necessary as "there is no creation without destruction". Nemo concludes the apology by saying that he has saved three pieces of art.


The film had its world premiere at the 73rd Berlin International Film Festival on 20 February 2023.[1][8] It was released theatrically in Greece on 10 March 2023 by Tulip Entertainment,[9] in Belgium on 15 March 2023 by Sony Pictures Belgium,[10] in Germany on 16 March 2023 by SquareOne Entertainment,[11] and in the United States on 17 March 2023 by Focus Features.[12][13]


On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 63% of 104 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 6.1/10. The website's consensus reads: "Inside might be a one-note drama that verges on an endurance test, but it does have Willem Dafoe going for it, which is nice."[14]


Inside Science was an editorially independent nonprofit science news service run by the American Institute of Physics from 1999 to 2022. Inside Science produced breaking news stories, features, essays, op-eds, documentaries, animations, and news videos.



Through our work, we aimed to thoroughly explore and accurately capture the search for discovery around the world -- to expose both the small corners and the broad vistas of the modern scientific landscape. Everything we wrote and produced was for the general public, and we approached this audience through a multitude of voices and perspectives. We also embraced as part of our mission the public service of addressing and correcting inaccurate or misleading information we found on the web.

His desire is not at all uncommon. In a typical week, only 6 percent of children ages nine to thirteen play outside on their own. Studies by the National Sporting Goods Association and by American Sports Data, a research firm, show a dramatic decline in the past decade in such outdoor activities as swimming and fishing. Even bike riding is down 31 percent since 1995. In San Diego, according to a survey by the nonprofit Aquatic Adventures, 90 percent of inner-city kids do not know how to swim; 34 percent have never been to the beach. In suburban Fort Collins, Colorado, teachers shake their heads in dismay when they describe the many students who have never been to the mountains visible year-round on the western horizon.


Urban, suburban, and even rural parents cite a number of everyday reasons why their children spend less time in nature than they themselves did, including disappearing access to natural areas, competition from television and computers, dangerous traffic, more homework, and other pressures. Most of all, parents cite fear of stranger-danger. Conditioned by round-the-clock news coverage, they believe in an epidemic of abductions by strangers, despite evidence that the number of child-snatchings (about a hundred a year) has remained roughly the same for two decades, and that the rates of violent crimes against young people have fallen to well below 1975 levels.


The physical benefits are obvious, but other benefits are more subtle and no less important. Take the development of cognitive functioning. Factoring out other variables, studies of students in California and nationwide show that schools that use outdoor classrooms and other forms of experiential education produce significant student gains in social studies, science, language arts, and math. One 2005 study by the California Department of Education found that students in outdoor science programs improved their science testing scores by 27 percent.


When this Milwaukee park was established it was a tree-lined valley, with a waterfall, a hill for sledding, and places for skating and swimming, fishing and boating. But when adjacent Riverside High School was expanded in the 1970s, some of the topography was flattened to create sports fields. Industrial and other pollution made the river unfit for human contact, park maintenance declined, and crime became a problem. Then, in the early 1990s, something remarkable happened. A retired biophysicist started a small outdoor-education program in the abandoned park. A dam on the river was removed in 1997, and natural water flow flushed out contaminants. Following a well-established pattern, crime decreased as more people used the park. Over the years, the outdoor-education program evolved into the nonprofit Urban Ecology Center, which annually hosts more than eighteen thousand student visits from twenty-three schools in the surrounding neighborhoods.


Federal and state conservation agencies are asking such questions with particular urgency. The reason: though the roads at some U.S. national parks remain clogged, overall visits by Americans have dropped by 25 percent since 1987, few people get far from their cars, and camping is on the decline. And such trends may further reduce political support for parks. In October 2006, the superintendent of Yellowstone National Park joined the cadre of activists around the country calling for a no-child-left-inside campaign to make children more comfortable with the outdoors. In a similar move, the U.S. Forest Service is launching More Kids in the Woods, which would fund local efforts to get children outdoors.


And then the man began to cry. Despite his embarrassment, he continued to speak, describing the source of his sudden grief: that he might belong to one of the last generations of Americans to feel that sense of ownership of land and nature. The power of this movement lies in that sense, that special place in our hearts, those woods where the bulldozers cannot reach. Developers and environmentalists, corporate CEOs and college professors, rock stars and ranchers may agree on little else, but they agree on this: no one among us wants to be a member of the last generation to pass on to its children the joy of playing outside in nature.


A psychological thriller that tells the story of Nemo (Willem Dafoe), an art thief trapped in a New York penthouse after his heist doesn't go as planned. Locked inside with nothing but priceless works of art, he must use all his cunning and invention to survive.
