The Fox

When a talking fox offers to turn his cheating fiancée into the perfect partner, one hapless Australian man discovers that getting what you want can come at a very strange price. 

Nick (Jai Courtney), affable heir to a wealthy rural landowner, discovers that his fiancée, Kori (Emily Browning), is cheating on him and wants nothing more than to just fix the problem. One night, he captures a rogue Fox (Olivia Colman), and she offers him a trade-off: if Nick lets her live, the Fox will help him save his relationship. All he has to do is push Kori into a magic hole with the power to change her into the perfect partner. Nick follows the Fox’s advice and the Kori who re-emerges seems to be everything he ever wanted. Until her strange new quirks make him question his decision.

Dario Russo’s gloriously offbeat dark comedy also stars the late Sam Neill as the voice of a foul-mouthed but friendly enough... magpie!
