Tender Is the Flesh

Description

In a chilling near future where a virus has rendered all animal meat toxic, humanity has turned to a horrifying new food source: human flesh. Marcos, a worker in a processing plant, navigates this grim reality, haunted by his wife's departure and his father's declining health. When he receives a live human specimen, he finds himself drawn into a forbidden connection, forcing him to confront the moral abyss of his society and the lingering echoes of his own humanity. Agustina Bazterrica's "Tender Is the Flesh" is a visceral and thought-provoking exploration of ethics, survival, and the terrifying ease with which society can normalize the unthinkable.
