Mutants(2002)

Mutants is a French horror film following Paula, a thirteen-year-old girl living with her mother on a quiet, well-maintained estate in a small provincial town. Surrounded by seemingly normal neighbours, Paula's perception of reality has been warped by an obsessive consumption of horror films. When strange occurrences begin to unfold around her home, the line between Paula's horror-soaked imagination and actual danger blurs dangerously. The film explores how a young mind saturated with genre thrills might interpret ordinary events as sinister threats, creating tension between what's genuinely threatening and what exists only in her fevered mind. Mutants is a darkly inventive take on adolescent psychology and the power of cinema to reshape how we see the world.
