The movie
Show notes
TFV's Matt Micucci continues his Showcast coverage of the 57th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic with an exclusive conversation with Sofia Alaoui, director of "Animalia." The film was presented in the festival's Horizons section, following its award-winning premiere at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. The movie follows the extraordinary journey of Itto, a young pregnant woman whose seemingly idyllic life takes a dramatic turn when a powerful storm unleashes a chain of enigmatic events, blending elements of dystopian uprising, environmental calamity and an impending apocalyptic reckoning. "Animalia" intertwines the realms of sci-fi disaster, road movie and spiritual odyssey, skillfully weaving a thought-provoking critique of Moroccan society with profound introspection into the very essence of existence.
