AS BESTAS
Media:
The Sorogoyen-Peña tandem continues to portray the miseries of Spain. In this case, they leave aside the police and political thriller to show the human being in its most primitive and despicable form. Nor will we see a big city like Madrid or Valencia, but a remote rural town in the interior of Galicia. In it, a tragic drama with shades of thriller will shake the lives of its protagonists, a couple of French people who notice how they are not well received in the village.
The Best first of all, it is a film of human characters. There are no heroes or villains, just human beings acting like precisely this: human beings. As portrayed by Julie Ducournau with her brutal Titanwe are not white or black, but gray, and they are very much to blame for that the space and time that has seen us grow.

Sorogoyen and Peña write a story, like their characters, very human, full of nuances and with real and raw suffering which quickly connects with the least predisposed viewer.
