“For my first feature film [Revenge], I really wanted to choose a film that was close to what I like as a director and as a filmmaker. I was sure it had to be a genre film. That’s what I grew up with. It was this strong desire to create my own genre film, combined with the idea of being fascinated with the Lolita character that brings upon her a lot of love and violence.”

Testing out a speculative self-optimization technology ten years ahead of The Substance, the French director won numerous awards for this electrifying descent into an image-obsessed society.

    Weaponizing tropes to neo-feminist ends, Coralie Fargeat fires on all cylinders in this killer film. Adrenalized by the same fascination with transformation that sparks across The Substance, the provocateur filmmaker empowers her heroine to go from Barbie to badass with dangerous, delirious style.
