Desperate to fit in during the first week of hazing rituals, she strays from her principles and eats raw meat for the first time and faces the terrible and unexpected consequences of her actions as her true self emerges.

Critics Consensus: Raw's lurid violence and sexuality live up to its title, but they're anchored with an immersive atmosphere and deep symbolism that linger long after the provocative visuals fade.

Abby Monteil

In juxtaposing her main character’s sexual awakening with her burgeoning cannibalism, director Julie Durconeau challenges the often fraught relationship between female violence and sexuality in horror.

Full of visceral horror and a thoughtful meditation on the various hungers of youth, Raw is a blazingly original and confidently crafted debut.

Raw is one of few films in the "female cannibal" canon, one that flips the power dynamic of women in horror so they are in control, rather than afraid of, their own carnal desires.

Terrifying and unsettling.

[The] straightforward plot serves as a perfect canvas for the varied and complex themes explored by Ducournau.
