Antoin and Olga, a French couple, have settled in a remote Galician village to run an organic farm and restore derelict houses to let, although their coexistence with the locals is not as idyllic as they would wish. In line with their commitment to the environment they refuse to implement a wind farm, and soon angry neighbors take matters to a point of no return.

In his Cannes Premiere selection, The Beasts, Rodrigo Sorogoyen takes us to the lush and mysterious terrain of Galicia and undermines the rural idyll with mounting antagonism and a dread, as he presents a gripping psychological thriller.

Filmography: Mother (2019), The Candidate (2018), May God Save Us (2016)
