The Beasts

Event information

Part social-realist drama, part film noir, the film presents the real-life story of middle-aged French couple Olga and Antoine who retire to the rural Spanish idyll of Galicia, where they plan to till the soil, grow their own produce, and even give something back to the community. But it takes only a visit or two to the local bar to discover how unwelcome they are. What’s going on? Well, perhaps inevitably the locals have their own conflicting ambitions and rather than continuing to enjoy the idyll where they live, they plan to sell up to a windfarm developer, and thus try to wreck the couple’s new-found Arcadia. As tensions ratchet up, who indeed are the beasts? (S)
