Évolution (2015)

A little boy finds a dead body at sea. I'd say more but you should definitely go into this more or less blind plotwise. It is stunningly shot in a beautiful yet stoic manner that almost overwhelms the minimalist plot and cold atmosphere. Don't be fooled by my adorement of the film's visuals though, it definitely goes into some dark territories. Thematically it's a little hard to unpack exactly what it's trying to say but that just makes me want to watch it again. A 4/5 at the very least.
