HUMAN FLOWERS OF FLESH

Ida is sailing the Mediterranean with her crew of five on a sailboat. When she encounters the French Foreign Legion in Marseille, she finds herself facing a closed-off world of men that exerts a strange fascination on her. She decides to follow the legionnaires’ trail with her team. Ida and her five companions travel via Corsica to Algeria. On their journey together, the boundaries between dream and reality blur, while life at sea fosters a special mutual understanding.

Helena Wittmann’s second feature film, following her highly acclaimed debut *DRIFT*, is a cinephile’s masterpiece full of captivating imagery, in which the Mediterranean Sea takes center stage as a living space. An exhilarating film that must be experienced on the big screen!
