Synopsis

In October 2005, five young people were kidnapped in the Highlands of Scotland. Stripped and hunted like animals, like the stags they'd been hunting, their ordeal was filmed and released on the internet, where it became myth. An extreme animal rights group claimed responsibility. It was a statement, a warning to others: 'If you hunt animals, we'll hunt you.' Blooded  is a thriller. Combining dramatic reconstruction and talking-head interviews with the survivors, Blooded  tells the compelling story behind one of the most extreme internet viral films of all time. Powerfully acted in the stunning landscape of the Scottish Highlands, this brutal and beautiful tale of extremism reveals a very human story of love, loyalty and betrayal.
