Synopsis
A haunting drama that peels back the silence surrounding domestic violence. Through the intimate story of a couple trapped in a cycle of pain, the film explores the emotional complexity and nuances of domestic partner abuse. A silent cat watches from the sidelines—an unsettling metaphor for our collective inaction. Inspired by real survivor testimonies, Domestic Animals is a bold, unflinching call to awareness and empathy.
