The Beast: hypnotic trailer with Léa Seydoux

Presented in competition in Venice, Bertrand Bonello’s new film explores genetic memory, lost loves and artificial intelligence.

“In a near future where artificial intelligence reigns, human emotions have become a threat. To get rid of them, Gabrielle must purify her DNA by diving back into her past lives. There she finds Louis, her great love. But a fear invades him, the presentiment that a catastrophe is brewing.” The official synopsis of The beastBertrand Bonello’s new film, doesn’t really look like an exercise in futuristic prospecting but rather a twisted reflection of the present, somewhere between Black Mirror And Assassin’s Creed…and it’s full of intriguing images that also summon Lynch and Cronenberg. In short, a really intriguing project, which will be led by Léa Seydoux, who is no stranger to SF since we saw her in Crimes of the Future and the ambitious video game Death Stranding by Hideo Kojima. The beast will be released on February 7, 2024.
