Cinematography: Beniamino Barrese
Plot
Long live the new flesh. Surgery is the new sex. These Cronenbergian epigrams come together in a tableau that reimagines the ecstasy and eroticism of Renaissance sculpture for the future. Or is it already the present?
Sinekatalog’s take
A short, icy body-horror tableau that treats surgery as art and eroticism. It is deliberately provocative, with a cool, sculptural look. For devotees of the director's fascination with flesh and technology.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
