BEAST
Truly, deeply, and especially madly: all the layers of love gathered in one single story. Bruno loves his wife Maxine. He remembers the passion of the first days, a dream come true, love at first sight, blablabla… basically, all the clichés of tear-jerking romance novels. But their love is not what it once used to be. Moreover; Maxine has found someone else. This painful discovery will plunge Bruno in an obsessive madness that will consume him physically and psychologically, until his love turns into an insane drive to destroy his beloved. Beast is a psychological drama that mercilessly dissects a dissolving marriage. The film is fueled with raw energy, desire and urgency. Director Christoffer Boe (Reconstruction, Allegro), finished the script in six nights and ended up with a Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf meets Alien story, shot in three weeks in the streets of Copenhagen. Beast, already the sixth collaboration between Boe and his fetish actor Nicolas Bro ( Adam’s Apples ) is a cautionary body horror tale about extreme passion.
