L'Espece explosive

Sarah Arnold · France, 2026 · 95 min
In this black comedy blending crime thriller and social satire, an emotionally troubled police officer finds himself caught up in an absurd conflict between farmers, hunters and rampaging wild boars. In the French countryside, wild boars ravaging crops spark an open war between farmers and members of a gentlemen's hunting club, who feed the animals between hunts. Brun, a bankrupt farmer, struggles to keep his farm afloat. When the club's president pushes him to his limits, Brun shoots him and disappears. A year later, Fulda, a volatile police officer newly transferred to the region, leads the investigation alongside Stéphane, a psychologist whose own life is falling apart. As wild boars proliferate across the region, their investigation takes increasingly unthinkable turns - as does the relationship developing between them.
"I liked the idea of a film populated by men, with a woman orbiting in their midst, catapulted into this community of hunters, farmers, and police officers. A kind of analytical thriller in which masculinity would be questioned." (Sarah Arnold)
