What is Thomas Cailley’s The Animal Kingdom about?
“In The Animal Kingdom, a visionary new thriller that drops viewers into an extraordinary world where mutations in human genetics cause people to transform into hybrid creatures, François (Roman Duris) does everything he can to save his wife, who is affected by this mysterious condition,” the official synopsis reads. “As some of the creatures disappear into a nearby forest, François embarks with Emile (Paul Kircher), their 16-year-old son, on a quest to find her with help from a local police officer (Adèle Exarchopoulos). From acclaimed director Thomas Cailley, the film world premiered as the opening night selection of Cannes Un Certain Regard.”
Cailley, who previously made 2014’s Love at First Fight and also worked on the 2018 television series Ad Vitam, co-wrote the screenplay for The Animal Kingdom with Pauline Munier. Pierre Guyard produced the movie, while Christophe Rossignon and Philip Boëffard served as associate producers.
Along with Duris, Kircher, and Exarchopoulos, The Animal Kingdom stars Tom Mercier as Fix, Billie Blain as Nina, Xavier Aubert as Jacques, Saadia Bentaïeb as Naïma, Gabriel Caballero as Victor, Iliana Khelifa as Maëlle, and Paul Muguruza as Jordan.
