Synopsis
Bullhead (Rundskop, 2011) is a Belgian-Dutch crime drama directed by Michaël R. Roskam — watch online on iFILM. Matthias Schoenaerts plays Jacky Vanmarsenille, a West Flemish cattle farmer built like a wall and running on illegal hormones, who gets pulled into a deal with the shadowy beef-trading underworld.
A corrupt vet brings Jacky a business proposition. A federal police officer turns up dead. And then a face from Jacky's past reappears — someone connected to a trauma buried so deep it shaped every inch of the man he became. The crime plot is genuinely tense, but Roskam keeps circling back to what happened to Jacky as a boy, and that's where the film cuts deepest.
Roskam's debut was submitted as Belgium's entry for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 2012, and Schoenaerts built his entire international career on this single performance. He communicates damage through posture and silence more effectively than most actors do with pages of dialogue. Stream Bullhead (2011) online on iFILM.
