A pitch-black satire about a blogger who cannot feel pain and keeps producing more and more content centered on self-harm. During one shoot, an accident occurs, forcing the young woman to flee high into the mountains — but she is soon tracked down by an ambitious journalist hungry for fame. The details of the incident are revealed gradually, leaving the audience to wonder what really happened.
Quentin Dupieux is our longtime favorite, releasing one-of-a-kind absurdist films once or twice a year. Hallmarks of his style include deadpan absurd humor, surrealism, and wildly unhinged characters — from a killer tire to a sentient jacket or a giant fly. Film critic Andrey Kartashov aptly dubbed this new film “self-harm cinema.”
