Synopsis

In a world hit by a wave of mutations that are transforming some humans into animals, François does everything he can to save his wife, who is affected by this mysterious condition. As creatures disappear into a nearby forest, François embarks with his teenage son Emile on a life-changing quest.

Our take

Paul Kircher stunned us with an astonishing performance in Winter Boy—and here the rising star brings poignancy to an ecological fable crawling with eerie monsters. Adèle Exarchopoulos co-stars in Thomas Cailley’s award-winning second feature, which dazzles with ambition and exuberant invention.
