Julia Ducournau's fierce debut: a vegetarian veterinary student undergoes a slow transformation into cannibalism.
"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, they say. For Justine, this quote means: Do not eat animals. At least that's what she thinks until she starts her studies at veterinary school where her sister already studies and where their parents also were studying. But nobody has told Justine in advance about cruel bullying that younger students have to suffer from the elders and that one day she will be forced to eat meat.
From that moment we watch slow, but persistent transformation from vegetarian into cannibal. But where does this instinct come from?
Debut movie from French director Julia Ducournau not only answers this question with fierceness and natural brutality, but also opens the topic about human beings and animals not being so different after all."
