DramaHorror
After a disfiguring leg injury, a young woman develops an unsettling secret relationship with her own body in which pain is pleasure, mutilation is love and hungers of the flesh have a mind of their own.
VIBE
A deeply disturbing and intimate descent into self-exploration that blurs the lines of pleasure and pain. Its raw, unflinching gaze makes for an intensely uncomfortable, yet strangely compelling, viewing experience.
