Instinct
Movie • 2019 • Thriller
ReportSynopsis
A queer metaphysical love story that weaves itself through real and imagined sexual encounters across darkrooms, forest cruising zones and highway shoulders. In these fantastical playgrounds, bodies are free to imagine themselves in a multiplicity of forms as they encounter other bodies without preconceived notions of what those other bodies desire, what they will need, and how they should be touched. While trusting the energetic attraction of bodies towards each other and learning through the encounter, INSTINCT simultaneously asks: what does it mean for a queer body to actively (un)learn what it might assume about another body's sex, gender, and desire?

A bunny is hit against a wall. We don't see the actual moment, only the dead bunny on the ground and the bloody wall (around the 1 hour time mark)

[Spoilers]
The film is about a psychologist who is treating a man who has committed several extreme sexual offences. There is a power play between the two, which ends in the main character getting raped.

Not exactly, but a very quiet scene cuts suddenly to a club scene (with strobe lights)

Not entirely clear what happens, but there is at some point a character who isn't seen or heard by any other characters.
