The film charts the escalating conflict from passive-aggressive glances at the local bar to vandalism, intimidation, and finally, an act of horrific, irreversible violence. Sorogoyen does not offer catharsis. He offers a tragedy. The title is a clever trap. Who are the beasts?

Rodrigo Sorogoyen has crafted a film that refuses to let the audience off the hook. It is a horror movie about property lines. A thriller about pronouns (us vs. them). A tragedy where the villain is the architecture of capitalism itself.

As Bestas is not a comfortable watch. It is a necessary one. It holds a mirror to the rural-urban divide and asks us to see the beast within our own reflection. In an age of polarization, Sorogoyen suggests that the most dangerous animal is not the wolf in the woods—it is the human being backed into a corner with no way out but through.
