RAW ( 2017 )

SYNOPSIS
Lifelong vegetarian Justine arrives at a veterinary school to start college. During the first night, she meets her gay roommate Adrien and is forced to partake in a hazing ritual, welcoming the new students. They are brought to a party, where Justine feels uncomfortable and meets her sister Alexia, who shows Justine old class photos, including one with their parents. The next morning, the new class is splattered with blood and are told to eat raw rabbit kidney. Justine refuses, saying she is a vegetarian but Alexia forces her to eat it, thus she reluctantly consumes the kidney. Later that night, Justine discovers a strong, itchy rash all over her body. She goes to the doctor the next day, who diagnoses her with food poisoning and gives her a cream for the rash.
The next day, Justine drives to a gas station with Adrien for a midnight snack. On their way there, Justine observes a car crash. That night, she eats raw chicken. After she talks with her teacher about cheating, Justine throws up a bundle of hair she ate. That night, she drinks with Alexia and asks if she can sleep at her place. She finds the same cream in Alexia's cabinet that the doctor gave Justine. Alexia gives her a Brazilian wax, during which some of the wax gets stuck on Justine's skin and Alexia proceeds to cut off with sharp scissors. Justine slaps her away and Alexia accidentally cuts her own finger off and faints. Justine immediately calls the ambulance. As she waits, she is overwhelmed with her craving for meat, and eats it as Alexia wakes up in shock. At the hospital she tries to throw it up but fails. They blame it on Quicky, Alexia's dog, who is put down.
The next morning, Alexia takes Justine to a deserted road, where she jumps in front of a car, which crashes into a tree. Alexia starts eating one of the passengers, as Justine tries to stop her. She walks back to school alone. Despite this, Justine's craving for human meat grows and she starts lusting after Adrien. She finds Alexia playing video games with him and gets jealous. That night, Justine has a nightmare where something attacks her in her sleep. Once she recovers, she arrives at a party, where she is forced to kiss a boy, during which she bites part of his lip off. Justine confides in Adrien and they end up having sex, during which Justine tries to bite Adrien several times, finally biting her own arm as she climaxes. They fight the next day.
Justine gets extremely intoxicated at a party, when she meets Alexia who takes her to the morgue. The next morning, everyone in the school stares at Justine, some avoiding her. After a lecture, Adrien shows her a video of Alexia taunting her with a dead body, which she lusts after like an animal. Justine confronts Alexia and they fight. Alexia bites part of Justine's face off and they both bite each other's arms. Later, Alexia bandages Justine's wound. The morning after, the hazing week ends and Justine awakens to find Adrien dead in his bed, with most of his right leg eaten away. She thinks she killed him in her sleep at first but finds a bloody ski pole on the floor next to the bed and a stab wound in his back. She gets out of the bed to find a bloody and mostly catatonic Alexia slumped in the kitchen holding a video game controller. Justine takes Alexia to the shower to get her cleaned up.
The film ends with Alexia in some kind of unspecified confinement and their father revealing to Justine that their mother also had cannibalistic urges in college when they met. He reveals to her his chest with pieces of flesh missing, saying that they found a solution and that she will find a way too.
