Léa Mysius’ film The Five Devils is a queer horror thriller about witches, time travel, and so much more. And really, that’s all I want in my horror movies. That’s why we’re so excited to have an exclusive peek at the upcoming film from MUBI.
Read the full synopsis:
Vicky, a strange and solitary little girl, has a magical gift: she can reproduce any scent she likes, and collects them in a series of carefully labeled jars. She has secretly captured the scent of Joanne, her mother for whom she nurtures a wild, excessive love. When her father’s sister Julia bursts into their life, Vicky reproduces her smell and is transported into dark and archaic memories which lead her to uncover the secrets of her village, her family, and her own existence.
We have an exclusive clip showing how Vicky captures these scents.
Watch the enchanting clip below:
Adèle Exarchopoulos, Sally Dramé, Swala Emati, Moustapha Mbengue, Daphné Pataki star in the film.
The Five Devils is in select theaters now, and comes to MUBI on May 12, 2023.
