A daring horror-anthology film built from seven segments, each by a different director, unified under the theme of taboo, the body and the repressed. The collection turns its gaze toward the most demonised and fetishised frontier of bodily representation — the anus — and uses this “hidden” territory to explore anxiety, identity, desire, repression and liberation. The stories vary in tone and style—some digital-age allegory, some dream-like psychological journeys, some extreme body-horror—but all form a choral fresco: each segment maintains its individual voice while entering into a dialogue with the others. The project positions itself not simply as provocation but as a political, aesthetic dissection of the obscene, asking where cinema’s boundaries lie, and what is suppressed, shown or revealed.
