WE ARE THE FLESH on Blu-ray and DVD on February 14, 2017 (pre-order here)
A visionary and bizarre slice of Mexican art house cinema, We Are the Flesh is an extraordinary and unsettling film experience, a sexually charged and nightmarish journey into an otherworldy dimension of carnal desire and excess, as well as a powerful allegory on the corrupting power of human desire.
Acclaimed by the Oscar-winning Mexican directors of The Revenant and Gravity and playing to rave reviews and stunned audiences at genre film festivals around the world, We Are the Flesh is that rare beast – an intelligent, beautifully crafted arthouse film that is also provocative and deeply disturbing. Mixing the graphic, powerful imagery of Gaspar Noé’s Love and Enter the Void with the surreal, hallucinatory impact of Alejandro Jodorowsky and taking Mexican arthouse cannibal flick We Are What We Are to the next level, We Are the Flesh is a bizarre, psychedelic head trip, mixing intense, outrageously explicit imagery with a profound allegory on the nature of existence to make this is an unforgettable, boundary-pushing experience unlike anything you’ve ever seen.
Visionary, unrelenting, and certainly not for the prudish or faint-hearted, We Are the Flesh is an erotic inferno of the senses that manages to pack all manner of delirium into its short running time, including incest, necrophilia, and cannibalism. This is extreme art cinema at its boldest and most taboo-bustingly bizarre.
In the film a young brother and sister, roaming an apocalyptic city, take refuge in the dilapidated lair of a strange hermit. He puts them to work building a bizarre cavernous structure, where he acts out his insane and depraved fantasies. Trapped in this maddening womb-like world under his malign influence, they find themselves sinking into the realms of dark and forbidden behaviour.
