Thanatomorphose: “visible signs of an organism’s decomposition caused by death”
Thanatomorphose is, to put it bluntly, a startling and horrifying first feature from writer/director Éric Falardeau. On the surface the film has a pretty simple plot: discovering several bruises on her body after a night of rough sex, a young woman is shocked as, rather than heal itself, her body begins rotting from the inside out, her putrifying body literally falling off the bone.
However dig a little deeper and you soon realise Falardeau’s film, however shocking, is actually a metaphor for societies ills – touching on ideas of loneliness, hopelessness, bad body-image and self-loathing. You could say the film is a wake-up call for all those young “sexualised” girls the media are forever warning us about.

Featuring: Kayden Rose, Émile Beaudry, Eryka Cantieri, Roch-Denis Gagnon
Thanatomorphose, which is a French word meaning "visible signs of an organism's decomposition caused by death," is Éric Falardeau's debut feature film. After offering us a series of award-winning shorts, which include Purgatory and Coming Home, Falardeau's first feature-length effort is the culmination of the "art house-gore" aesthetic he's been cultivating in his previous works.
The film follows a young woman, brilliantly played by Kayden Rose, who is numbly sleepwalking through her life: She has a boring day job she doesn't care about; she is stuck in a loveless, abusive relationship; her social life is pretty much non-existent; and she even lacks the motivation to work on a sculpture she's been trying to complete. To make matters worse, she just doesn't care about any of this, passively letting everything happen to her without ever...
