Shy Anx and the exuberant Cass have just spent their first night together when a strange virus suddenly starts to spread. For protection, they shut themselves off from others, but their withdrawal may prove to be an illusion.

Do inanimate objects have a soul? This romantic behind-closed-doors thriller, very unusual in French cinema, reflects the influence of David Cronenberg and Shinya Tsukamoto, as well as Björk music videos. The astonishing special effects bring to life this story of literally fused love. Whatever happens, avoid any eye contact!
