With The Untamed, Daniel Minahan(Halston, Game of Thrones) directs a story of love and the quest for identity, set in America in the 1950s. Adapted from Shannon Pufahl's novel On Swift Horses by Bryce Kass, this drama explores unspoken desires and the paths to independence through characters in search of themselves.
Les Indomptés will be released in France on April 30, 2025.
Synopsis: Muriel and her husband Lee start a new life in California when he returns from the Korean War. Their relationship is soon upset by the arrival of Lee's charismatic brother Julius, a high roller with a secret past. A love triangle is formed. But Julius decides to follow Henry, a young card player with whom he has fallen in love. Shaken by his departure and more independent than ever, Muriel finds an outlet in horse racing and the exploration of a love she never dared imagine...
Elegantly staged and meticulously reconstructed in the 1950s, Les Indomptés promises to be a sensory and poignant drama, driven by intense performances and meticulous photography.
With its exploration of the forbidden in love and the quest for independence, Les Indomptés follows in the footsteps of films such as Todd Haynes' Carol and Ang Lee's The Secret of Brokeback Mountain. The feature promises an intimate, nuanced approach, where characters grapple with their desires, regrets and aspirations for a more authentic life.
With its blend of passionateromance, existential drama and historical fresco, Les Indomptés could appeal to fans of intense love stories and tales of female and queer emancipation.
Les Indomptés promises to be a captivating drama about the impulses of the heart and the social barriers of the times. The performances of the main trio, combined with refined direction, could make this one of the year's outstanding romances.
It remains to be seen whether this subtle, spellbinding tale will reach a wide audience and establish itself as an essential work of contemporary romantic cinema.
