Beasts is a dark, satirical exploration of modern masculinity, power, and identity, questioning the dangerous allure of toxic ideologies and the consequences of chasing empty, destructive ideals.

The insecure Man, disillusioned by their lack of success and authority in a world that prizes inclusivity, and believes that their masculinity is at threat due to the change of societal ideals, stumbles upon a website promising eternal masculinity. This act summons up the spirit of Alpha, the living epitome of toxic masculinity. Alpha offers Man one year of absolute masculine power and dominance in exchange for their soul, and an eternity of enjoying the spoils of manhood, violence and dominance in the afterlife, particularly over women. Man eagerly accept the deal and therefore become beasts . As Man’s one year of power ends, the true cost of the deal becomes clear.
