A father and his 16-year-old son find themselves on the road after a mutation releases the animal side of their peers. Birdmen, wolf-children… disconcerting physical changes are accompanied by profound emotional changes throughout the world…
The animal kingdom, the beginning of a new world?
SF film playing with physical and metaphysical questions, The Animal Kingdom is undoubtedly a post-Covid ecological film, witness to a world under permanent tension. Mutations, hybridizations, unknown threats, flight, survival… should we fight at all costs or adapt?
Equipped mainly with old-fashioned non-digital effects based on long hours of makeup and special effects, The Animal Kingdom by Thomas Cailley (The Fighters), with Romain Duris, Paul Kircher and Adèle Exarchopoulos, made its mark minds when it was released on October 4. It is already available for pre-order in 4K as of February 7, 2024. More information as soon as possible. Publisher: Studiocanal.
