Else

Thibault Emin's mesmerizing debut feature is a body horror romance set amid a strange epidemic that causes the infected to melt into their surroundings.

Anx and Cass’s very new relationship is catapulted to the next level when a strange new disease begins to spread that gradually merges living beings into whatever object they come into contact with. When lockdown is imposed, Anx and Cass find themselves confined into Anx’s apartment. As their romance blooms, they become surrounded by a building taking new forms and lives, and soon the walls are literally closing in. Thibault Emin’s feature film debut is a psychedelic body-horror like no other, with hints of Lynch and Cronenberg perhaps, but very much unlike anything else.

“It immerses us into the strange details while also pulling back for striking wide shots that let us soak up all the ways that this new world being born is something uniquely, terrifyingly alive.” – Chase Hutchinson, The Wrap
