Behemoth!: story and trailer overview
The story
A gifted cellist, Alex Serian, returns to Los Angeles after twenty years on the road. Music has been his all-consuming current, and now that force propels him into an unexpected journey at home that promises to upend his life and identity.
Why it works
The film centers on a musician confronting the consequences of a decades-long devotion to art while re-entering a former life. The premise suggests themes of homecoming, transformation, and how creative obsession reshapes relationships and selfhood.
What to expect
We expect intimate scenes of personal reckoning driven by music rather than spectacle, with the protagonist’s past life and artistic identity colliding in ways that force deep choices and change.
Our take
For us, the premise promises a character-focused drama where music functions as both guide and catalyst for personal reinvention.
