Inconsolable since the death of his wife, Karsh, a prominent businessman, invents a revolutionary and controversial technology that enables the living to monitor their dear departed in their shrouds. One night, multiple graves, including that of Karsh’s wife, are desecrated, and he sets out to track down the perpetrators.
“If the oft-abused term of body horror applies, it isn’t necessarily about the horrors of the decaying body, but of the horror of its no longer being there – which means that above all, Cronenberg has made a love story.” ~ Nicolas Rapold, BFI
