The 2021 Palme D'or winner is a thriller, a mysterious body horror and the bastard child of Cronenberg's 'Crash' and Carax's 'Holy Motors.' YFS' Cult Cinema series returns.

Alexia suffers a terrible skull injury and has a titanium plate fitted into her head. When she gets out of the hospital, she rejects her parents and embraces passionately the car that almost killed her. The coming years she has problems with her sexuality and meets Vincent. Vincent is a tortured man who tries to preserve his strength by injecting steroids into his aging body. Will they find a way to deal with their emotional problems?

In French with English subtitles.

Recommended ages 18+ for strong violence and disturbing images.

"It's a body horror that's really a family drama; that's really a sly comedy about the discomfort of being trapped inside all this vulnerable, imperfect flesh." - Clarisse Loughrey, Independent UK
