The Beast 15
In the near future emotions have become a threat. Gabrielle decides to purify her DNA in a machine that will immerse her in her past lives and rid her of any strong feelings. But then she meets Louis, and although he seems dangerous, she feels a powerful connection to him as if she has known him forever.
Starring Lea Seydoux and George Mackay, The Beast had its world premiere on 3 September 2023 at the 80th Venice International Film Festival as part of the official competition.
