Synopsis: From the rich and textured imagination of Czech visionary Juraj Herz (The Cremator) comes his own vivid reimagining of a classic fairy tale in Beauty and the Beast. The film follows the innocent Julie and her experiences living under the watchful eye of Netvor, a bird-like being torn between his growing affection for her and his animalistic urge to kill. Gorgeously shot, intriguingly surreal, thrillingly sensual - Beauty and the Beas retells a beloved story in ways unlike any adaptation before or since.
