Discover the very first images of the mythical David Cronenberg’s new work, Crimes of the Future. The film was selected for the 2022 Cannes Film Festival.
After an eight-year absence from the cinema, the legendary David Cronenberg is back on camera with Les Crimes du Futur! His latest film, Maps To The Stars, is dated 2014. The Canadian filmmaker, to whom we owe La Mouche, eXistenZ, Crash or Cosmopolis, will present his new film at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
Director Viggo Mortensen finds himself for the fourth time after a history of violence, shadow promises and a dangerous method.
As we see in this mysterious and disturbing first trailer, Cronenberg goes back to his roots, still exploring the obsessions seen in Videodrome, eXistenZ, or Crash.
By the way, Future Crimes is based on the original screenplay by David Cronenberg. This was no longer the case after the 1999 eXistenZ.
History will lead us to the near future. Although the human species adapts to the synthetic environment, the human body is subject to new transformations and mutations.
Sul Tenser (Vigo Mortensen), a well-known performer with the participation of his partner Caprice (Lea Seidu), is staging a metamorphosis of his body in avant-garde shows.
Timlin (Kristen Stewart), an investigator with the National Bureau of Organs, closely monitors their practice. That’s when a mysterious group emerges: they want to use Saul’s knowledge to reveal to the world the next stage of human evolution.
This project is already becoming a shock to the 75th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, which will take place from 17 to 28 May.
“Surgery is the new sex”Kristen’s character is announced by Viggo Mortensen, while the instruments are being prepared for the slaughter of Lea Seidu’s body. “I wanted to cut my face”He says sensually after a few shots.
The trailer ends with his character starting to tear Mortensen in the stomach before saying: “Do you feel bad?”
That is why Cronenberg sends us the message: the guilt of the future risks challenging the mind during a skin session. The French release date is May 25, 2022.
