Two years after the future crimes, David Kronenberg returned to the Cannes Film Festival in 2024 to present the science fiction thriller Les Léceuls, led by Vincent Cassell and Dian Kruger.
The Master of the Body Horror’s latest film will eventually publish a cinema for this filmmaker’s fans, as a passion for passionate bodies, new technologies and questions about the future.
Disturbing and moving sf thriller on the mourning
With Shrouds, David Cronenberg supplies an intimate and very personal SF thriller this time, which should be fascinated by you as much as you move. Vincent Cassell depicts a 50 -year -old Carrie, a well -known businessman.
After the death of his wife Beka (Diane Kruger), he invents a revolutionary and controversial system, a gravetech, which allows life to connect with their precious loss in their bushes. One night, several tombs, including his wife, are vandalized. He goes to finding criminals at the door.
If David Kronenberg uses science fiction and new futuristic technologies in the shields that represent as disturbing as exciting, it is more mourning as Diane Kruger emphasizes our microphone:
“When I met David, he linked me to a dangerous thought that he had overwhelmed when his wife died. When he died and put it in his bridge, he had it almost a superhuman and very strong desire to come with it.
The idea that he might be alone in death was unbearable for him. And I have received a lot of things, because I have never thought about it until now, because some people around me are dead. And although he abolished his thoughts on death, death alone and staying when expensive creatures are left. “
Three rolls for Diane Kruger
If Diane Kruger portrays Beka, a Karshi deceased woman, she also plays terry, Beka’s sister, as well as Hun, artificial intelligence. “It was not easy at first”Explains the actor, “But in the end, the sisters are quite different.”.

As for Terry, Dian Kruger has a lot to do with this eccentric character: “I have been pleased to have her short hair with her sister because she has a very conspiracy side. She’s sparkling. She cares for the dogs. There the creation of the whole universe, which was quite funny and enjoyable.”.
Ditto for hunny, a kind of avatar that accompanies Karsh: “It’s a pretty funny exercise because we are on the green background and with all the points we have on our body. It was a bit like Siri’s game”.
The most difficult scenes of Diane Kruger were to turn to Becca’s skin because they are the most moving. “The scenes where I play a woman who is in trouble is somewhere the most difficult scene because they were in more emotions, but at the same time the most obvious game because the situation arose as it was”It explains.
A personal movie for David Kronenberg
If the film combines new technologies, transforming and monitoring organs, it acts primarily as a great declaration of David Cronenberg’s love for his wife, Carolin Kronenberg, Nes Carolin Zeifman, a documentary and editing director who died in 2017.
This is an actress Dian Kruger, who has a difficult task to portray David Cronenberg’s wife this projection. “When I got a script I didn’t know it was a personal story“He explained to our microphone.

“That’s what she told me a little about her life when we first saw it.”He continues to, “So, for me, it was a bit shocked because I suddenly found myself in David’s intimate relationship. Obviously there is something that has been added and changed, but still, the scenes between Vincent and I in Flashback, where I play with his wife, who is very intimate at various stages of his illness.”.
What to make Shrouds the most singular film about David Cronenberg’s career? No doubt for Diane Kruger: “Even if David’s film remains in this particular world, which is his own, we think there is something in life and a very personal spirit that distinguishes the film slightly from his work..
Shrubs are a cathetical experience for David Kronenberg, which gives a huge experience in the cross on the path that mourns and all the dark stages and thoughts that fall into the soul when a loved one disappears.
The director suggested that this could be his latest film, so we recommend that you see the headlights in the movie theater if you are a fan of David Kronenberg’s work.
