You may be shocked. You might turn away. But you will never forget the “uniquely disturbing” (Indiewire), “spectacularly grotesque” (Los Angeles Times), “superbly acted and brilliantly made” (Cult Projections) debut film by writer/director/star Marina de Van. After a disfiguring leg injury, a young woman (de Van) 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. This “beautiful and terrifying body horror tour-de-force” (Village Voice) has been scanned in 4K from the original camera negative for the first time ever by Severin Films. – Severin Films
