“Claire Denis’ carnal masterpiece incisively dissects love, desire, and hunger—in this case, for flesh.”—Keith Uhlich, Time Out New York

Scientist Shane Brown (Vincent Gallo) neglects his new bride (Tricia Vessey), instead spending their honeymoon searching for an old colleague, Dr. Léo Semeneau, who disappeared after a research paper he had written was discredited by the medical community.

It turns out that Dr. Sémeneau is living in obscurity to protect his wife Coré (Béatrice Dalle), whom he keeps prisoner in a room with boards nailed across the doorway. Marauders of the psyche and disturbed moral compasses figure in this frequently bloody fever dream. With a haunting score by Tindersticks. 2001, France, new 35mm print, in English, 101 minutes. Recommended for 16+

Co-presented with Lamplighter Film Union.

CINEMA+ With a reading and post-screening discussion by poet Iva Moore, author of Women Collapse Into / Better, Brighter Artists (Oversound, 2023).
