After a road accident, a writer, Edgar, and his wife, Mylène, take up residence on an island off the coast of France to recuperate.

The islanders grow suspicious of the reclusive couple, and their unease soon turns to aggression.

Although The Creatures has been mostly forgotten in Agnes Varda's catalogue and was considered an artistic failure by Varda herself, it's a fantastic underseen gem and a bizarre, sensual, and humorous portrait of marital conflict.
