The Hunters

1970 something. As the end of an era of repression approaches, a bourgeois family still in its bubble of power spends its vacation in a country house. The teenage cousins spend their days in indolence, interrupted by fits of hysteria. It will only take the introduction of an outside element for violence to erupt.

Directed by David Pinheiro Vicente, The Hunters leans on a strong ensemble — Miguel Amorim, Rita Poças, Rodrigo Barradas — 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 history titles of 2024.
