Outside Satan

Hors Satan

A mysterious and taciturn loner, who communes with the coastal dunes, seascapes, and sunsets of the Pas-de-Calais, has acquired a local reputation as a healer. He is an embodiment of the spirit of the landscape, beyond good and evil, executing his sacred tasks: punishing the wicked, exorcising the demons, mechanically offering salvation through sex, bringing an innocent victim back from the dead. A secular and mesmerizing parable that delves into the coexistence of the divine and the satanic inside the human soul.

Bruno Dumont

Bruno Dumont is an unconventional French film director and screenwriter whose films navigatethrough the borderline between harsh drama and religious allegory, always in search of the glimmer of light that hides in the darkness. Two of Dumont’s films, Humanity and Flanders, have been bestowed with the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes film festival.
