Film Movement will be premiering the dark coming-of-age thriller Animale on VOD and Digital on August 8, 2025. The film is directed by Emma Benestan and stars Oulaya Amamra and Damien Rebattel. It follows a young woman rancher seeking glory in the deadly sport of bull-running who finds herself trapped in a nightmare of violence, vengeance, and transformation that proves to be a potent dose of body horror.
GVN has been provided with an exclusive clip from the new film ahead of its debut which you can find below:
Synopsis: In the Camargue region of the South of France, there remains an infamous, long-standing tradition of bullfighting. Local youths participate in the elegant yet dangerous challenge, practicing a modernized version of the sport that seeks not to kill the animals but rather to showcase agility and dominance. Among them is Nejma, an intrepid 22 year-old with dreams of one day winning the annual competition. The only woman working on the cattle ranch, she trains tirelessly to prove herself equal among the men, both in and outside of the arena. The ranchers share a deep respect for the bulls, though when a loose bull threatens the community of riders and young men begin turning up dead, a hunt to find and kill the creature begins. Nejma fears for the bull, beginning a dark, mysterious transformation of her own.
Dillon is most comfortable sitting around in a theatre all day watching both big budget and independent movies.
