Cows(1972)

Cows is a darkly comedic film following Geraldine, a psychiatric social worker whose car breaks down in the countryside. When locals from a nearby farmhouse rush to her aid, she uncovers an unsettling truth: one family member has developed an unusual and disturbing preference for the company of cattle over human interaction. What begins as a simple roadside rescue spirals into something far stranger as Geraldine finds herself drawn into the family's isolated world. The film explores themes of isolation, mental health, and the peculiar ways people cope with loneliness, blending dark humor with an increasingly eerie atmosphere. As Geraldine attempts to understand the family's dynamics, the boundaries between helper and patient blur in unexpected ways.
