The Body

Unclassified 18+

Jane spends her days playing a corpse on true-crime TV. At night, she tries to wash it all off, but the feelings start to stick.

Exploring our cultural obsession with images of dead women in true crime, the debut film by theatre director Louris van de Geer is a satirical and absurdist portrait of a woman who finds herself experiencing the trauma of the victims she inhabits on screen.
