Set to premiere this Saturday, May 14th in the Critics’ Week section of the Cannes Film Festival is the Franco-Belgian co-production Grave, also selling under the title Raw.
In the film, “Everyone in Justine’s family is a vet. And a vegetarian. At 16, she’s a brilliant and promising student. When she starts at veterinary school, she enters a decadent, merciless and dangerously seductive world. During the first week of hazing rituals, desperate to fit in whatever the cost, she strays from her family principles when she eats raw meat for the first time. Justine will soon face the terrible and unexpected consequences of her actions when her true self begins to emerge…”
Julia Ducournau directs Grave, which stars Rabah Naït Oufella, Laurent Lucas, and Bouli Lanners.
Bloody Disgusting has three freshly ground stills from the film to go along with a clip in which we see Justine give into her primal urges.
