Peep the trailer for Oscar nominated Belgian crime-thriller Bullhead

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Contending in this year’s Best Foreign Film category at the Academy Awards is Michael R. Roskam’s Belgian crime-thriller BULLHEAD. Turns out the flick is culling massive buzz, so we thought it only right we share the international trailer with y’all. If you like what you see, perhaps you’ll seek the film out during its limited run here in the states starting tomorrow (Feb. 17th). I know I just may…

Written by Roskam as well:

The young Limburg cattle farmer Jacky Vanmarsenille is approached by an unscrupulous veterinarian to make a shady deal with a notorious West-Flemish beef trader. But the assassination of a federal policeman, and an unexpected confrontation with a mysterious secret from Jacky’s past, set in motion a chain of events with far-reaching consequences. BULLHEAD is an exciting tragedy about fate, lost innocence and friendship, about crime and punishment, but also about conflicting desires and the irreversibility of a man’s destiny.

After scoping the trailer and reading a little about the film, I’m starting to think BULLHEAD will be a serious contender to the front-running Iranian film, A SEPARATION. Might have to shake the Oscar pool yo!
