David Cronenberg has set his latest film at an unspecified date in the future when people no longer suffer physical pain. Nevertheless, human bodies continue to rebel against their owners, for instance by uncontrollably mutating. Saul (Viggo Mortensen) even produces entirely new organs, which his partner Caprice (Léa Seydoux) removes at avant-garde performances. This oddity cannot escape the attention of Timlin (Kristen Stewart), an investigator from the National Organ Registry… The Canadian icon of body horror is back with another post-organic visual concept in which he asks, in his inimitably bizarre manner, where the “synthetic age” is taking us, what sex might look like in an era of newly discovered thrills, and who owns whose body today.
