A grisly 21st century mix of Carrie and Ginger Snaps, When Animals Dream revolves around Marie, a young girl who works at the local fish factory in a small Danish fishing village with her protective father and wheelchair-bound mother. It soon becomes apparent that the rest of the village is very wary of this family. Marie’s sense of isolation is heightened when she starts undergoing a disturbing physical transformation! A beautiful film with bite.
