DramaThriller

After completing jail time for beating up a man who tried to seduce his mentally-handicapped teenage daughter, the Butcher wants to start life anew. He institutionalizes his daughter and moves to the Lille suburbs with his mistress, who promises him a new butcher shop. Learning that she lied, the Butcher returns to Paris to find his daughter.

VIBE

A raw, unflinching descent into pure rage. This film feels like a primal scream, a visceral exploration of hate and isolation. It's a brutal, unforgettable experience that leaves you shaken.
