Synopsis
The Animal Kingdom (Le Règne animal, 2023) is Thomas Cailley's French science-fiction drama, and you can watch online on iFILM. A strange mutation is spreading: people are slowly turning into animals.
Cook François has already watched his wife sprout fur and stop answering to her name; she's being moved to a special center in the south of France. He and his teenage son Émile relocate to stay close. Then the transport van full of half-changed creatures crashes, and they scatter into the woods. François keeps hunting for his wife. Émile (Paul Kircher), meanwhile, starts to notice claws pushing through his fingertips — the change has come for him too. Romain Duris plays the father, with Adèle Exarchopoulos as a local officer caught between the humans and the hunted.
Cailley grounds the wild premise in something tender: a coming-of-age story about a changing body and the fear of losing someone you love. The film opened Un Certain Regard at Cannes and racked up a clutch of César nominations. Best for viewers who want their sci-fi raw and emotional rather than action-packed.
