Camargue, France - Infamous for its traditional bull race, an exhilarating and graceful challenge of agility and respect between man and beast. Surrounded by men, 22-year-old Nejma trains hard to fulfill her dream of winning the upcoming annual competition, but news of a rogue and violent bull on the loose terrifies the community. Young men are being murdered everywhere, and the beast is nowhere to be seen. (Cannes Film Festival)

A werewolf-like theme of nocturnal transformations into a murderous animal, this time a bull. Seriously. And there doesn’t even have to be a full moon. Despite a lot of night-time scenes and slightly bloody killings, Animale doesn’t work as a horror movie at all. It’s rather a drama with a strange “animal energy”, taking place in the countryside in the environment of bullfighting and raising bulls, with which the protagonist finds a mental connection. The narrative doesn’t lack a light artistic touch and the story offers a surprise in explaining why the transformations into a bull happen. But don’t expect a powerful movie experience, because Animale is rather just a curiosity. Two and a half stars. [Cannes FF] ()
