ANONYMOUS ANIMALS
LES ANIMAUX ANONYMES

Baptiste Rouveure
France 2020 64 DCP Color
Film description
In a landscape of decaying nature, enwrapped in an ominous fog, tables have turned and the balance of power is reversed. Anthropomorphic animals have the upper hand while adopting all man-made codes of dominion. They act as hunters and exploiters, inflicting “dehumanizing” tactics upon the helpless humans, who are seen as nothing more than anonymous silhouettes, each interchangeable with any other. Stripped of any dialogue, this otherworldly parable on human-driven plundering crafts a threatening aura of primeval mystery.
61st TIFF: Greek premiere
