In a forest, on the outskirts of Barcelona, an old shepherd and his flock live together with a high-tech laboratory for animal experimentation. Two opposite worlds facing each other. Two worlds that are two sides of the same coin. While the shepherd -who is sick with a bone disease- sees how his profession disappears, the scientists are busier than ever researching the Covid vaccine. ‘Fauna’ is a reflection on the relationship between humans, animals and science in times of pandemic.

Aug 2, 2024 Full Review Kristy Strouse Film Inquiry Fauna immerses viewers in two contrasting worlds and provides a unique and thought-provoking experience, even if it may not resonate with everyone. Oct 19, 2023 Full Review Jonathan Holland Screen International Handled by Faus with enjoyably light touch, gently lacerating our absurdities while keeping a compassionate eye on the fascinating and unfathomable contradictions that make us who we are.
