Pest

Pest invites us to discover the practice of hunting, through the eyes of a young boy. He, however, looks strangely tense. Naturally, tradition puts a heavy weight on him, while his father reminds him that hunt is a “family duty”. But something else is even more alarming recently, the rules have changed.

Directed by Maxime Baudin, Pest leans on a strong ensemble — Jean-Baptiste Blanc, Julien Girbig, Chadi Atsouawe — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 0.
