Titane 2021

![]() Depending on your browser you may have to click right -> "Save as" Surely, no one expected a violent body horror film about a woman with a car fetish to win the prestigious Palme d'Or in 2021, but here we are! While it's admittedly not for everyone (it's for those with taste), Julia Ducournau's Titane features a queer female lead, gender-bending themes, and undertones associated with the unavoidable horrors of transitioning. In short, the film follows the unhinged journey of Adrien (Agathe Rousselle) — a murderous woman who developed a fetish for metal after having a titanium plate fitted in her head as a child. While on the run, we watch Adrien grapple with her identity and struggle to let others in. In a word, this film is shocking. |
