Goat
Directed by Andrew Neel1h 43m2016
Reeling from a terrifying assault, a nineteen year old enrolls into college with his brother and pledges the same fraternity. What happens there, in the name of 'brotherhood,' tests him and his loyalty in brutal ways.
Our read: Goat (2016) reads as a heavy, kinetic, grounded drama entry — extreme in intensity, intimate in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
Heavy, kinetic, extreme drama, grounded in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold.
