The Substance

“Have you ever dreamt of a better version of yourself? You. Only better in every way. Seriously. You've got to try this new product. It's called The Substance. It changed my Life.” The Substance is de nieuwe film van Coralie Fargeat (Revenge) met een gewaagde comebackrol van Demi Moore (G.I. Jane), rising star Margaret Qualley (Once Upon a Time In Hollywood, Poor Things) en oude bekende Dennis Quaid (Far From Heaven). Dé shockfilm uit Cannes (winnaar Beste Scenario) werpt een komische blik op de houdbaarheid van vrouwelijke schoonheid in Hollywood. Een stijlvolle en kleurrijke satire met een goede scheut (body) horror.
