“Surgery is the new sex”

Body horror master David Cronenberg (see The Fly, Videodrome at SWIFF’23), returns with his first film in eight years, a seductive and haunting vision of the future where the lines between technology and humanity have been blurred and humans have moved beyond their natural state.

As the human species adapts to a synthetic environment, the body undergoes new transformations and mutations. With his partner Caprice (Léa Seydoux, also in One Fine Morning, SWIFF'23), Saul Tenser (Viggo Mortensen) - a celebrity artist - publicly showcases the metamorphosis of his organs in avant-garde performances. Timlin (Kristen Stewart), an investigator from the National Organ Registry, obsessively tracks their movements, while an anarchic cult is embracing change in a shadowy underworld.

Long live the new flesh!
