A Tarantinesque splash of violence, sex and pulsating music shook Cannes and won Palm d'Or.

Alexa in her childhood got a titanium – a metal that is extremely resistant to heat and shocks – implant in her head. As an adult she feels the effects of one of the hardest metals – a tendency to pyromania and destruction, an uncontrollable craving for sex with... cars. The mixture of hormones and gasoline in her body causes waves of aggression. The orgies are replaced by bloody cruelty, and when the story seems to have culminated, a strange encounter takes place.

As much comical as nightmarish, but strictly N-18.

Movie in French with subtitles in Latvian and Russian.
