About the show
Intent on exposing the cosmetics industry for exploiting insecurities through unrealistic beauty standards, an environmental activist falls in love with a ballerina with her own obsession with unattainable beauty, becoming dangerously drawn into the world of underground plastic surgery. Director Carlos Conceicao’s English language debut is deliciously noir-ish body horror in the David Cronenberg mould; a sensual world of beauty and flesh, put under the microscope and the scalpel.
