Variety has first word on In the Flesh, described as a “romantic drama with dashes of terror” that will mark the feature debut of Ainhoa Menéndez.
“In the Flesh follows Mara, a woman almost in her thirties, working as a stock girl in a supermarket, who grew up in foster homes. Throughout her life all the people she has loved have abandoned her, so to get them to stay with her, she decides to eat them.
“Mara will have to face her cannibal instincts when she meets Sandra and falls in love with her.”
“I think what makes In the Flesh original is the treatment of its characters, the terrifying impulse that Mara suffers which is just a consequence of how lonely and abandoned she feels, and this is something universal that can happen to any of us at some stage of our lives,” Executive producer Nuria Landete told Variety.
She added: “Ainhoa wants the audience to be able to understand Mara even if it doesn’t share her animal impulse.”
“…weird characters, societal misfits seek to find themselves and/or someone to love,” Menéndez says of her debut. “They are people who suffer a deep solitude.”
Here’s some extremely early sales art.
