Synopsis

An aspiring actor undergoes a radical medical procedure to drastically transform his appearance. However, his new dream face quickly turns into a nightmare, as he loses out on the role he was born to play and becomes obsessed with reclaiming what was lost.

Our take

With a heartbreaking Sebastian Stan and electric turns from Adam Pearson and Renate Reinsve, this stylish dark comedy tackles provocative ideas around self-image. Its sharp reflection on beauty standards masks a charged question: when does the problem stop being society, and start to be you?
