Raw

Justine (Garance Marillier), a vegetarian veterinary student, finds herself compelled to eat raw meat after enduring a carnivorous hazing ritual at her school. The seemingly innocent act triggers Justine's transformation into something horrific and primal. Her struggle with her newfound insatiable hunger is depicted in the most visceral ways. Raw, directed by Julia Ducournau, is a horror-drama that masterfully explores the themes of identity, family bonds, and societal pressures. Its intense performances and shocking imagery helped it win the FIPRESCI Prize at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival.
