Across a career spanning over 40 years, French-born filmmaker Leos Carax has firmly established himself as one of the most unique and innovative voices in modern European cinema. After a period writing criticism for Cahiers du Cinéma while he was still a teenager, Carax released his debut film Boy Meets Girl (1984) at age 23 to international acclaim. Carax followed up on this early promise with the futuristic neo-noir Mauvais Sang (1986), the romantic drama Les Amants du Pont-Neuf (1991), and the Herman Melville adaptation Pola X (1999).

We live in an age of optimization. Norms of beauty and performance are relentlessly getting harder to achieve without modifying the psychophysiology of human beings. Humans are faced with choices and demands regarding increasing and reducing the size, mass, and weight of different body parts and the modification of the way they function. The normal no longer means the common, it means the optimal. From special diets and extreme workouts to silicon injections and from plastic surgery to brain chips, the human body is transforming into a workshop for different arts and technologies. The cosmetic surgery market, for example, is worth more than 57 billion dollars and is expected to continue to grow very fast.
