Dismissed upon release as high-gloss pornography, "La Bête" is actually a radical meditation on the animal within civilization. The plot, loosely borrowed from a novella by Prosper Mérimée, follows a wealthy aristocratic family attempting to marry off their daughter, Romilda, to a young American heir. But hidden in the château’s stables and forests lurks a literal beast — hairy, horned, and violently passionate — who haunts the bloodline.
