Absolutely amazing
Clarissa Mora
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

I'm sure there are people out there who fantasize about internal organs its not a far fetched idea given the sick world we live in, there is no point to this movie, the ending actually is the best part because it pretty much summarizes the whole movie. So do yourself a favor and just skip to the very last 3 minutes or so, where you are treated to a scene of a man operating on his lover while she's awake, he cuts her open and then he proceeds to bury his face into her open flesh, licking her insides and begins his orgasmic Internal organ fetish, while she lovingly rubs his head and encourages him. This scene explains to you the whole movie which is pure and simple, Internal Organs sexual Fetish between two people.Oh yes, he also gets off to MRI scans of internal organs at some point in the movie.

A female art student and a male radiologist discover that they share a fascination for certain body parts - those that are inside the body. This is an unbelievably dull movie. There is hardly any plot. The only point of the movie is that the two main characters are obsessed with internal organs. They talk about the organs endlessly. The man then gets off by doing an MRI on her and lusting after her organs. This works for a while but then looking at pictures of her organs is not satisfying enough for either of them. Hence, it is taken to the next step where he must touch her organs...and the film takes a turn from merely boring to disgusting.

Psychopathology and sexuality. OK. Yes, an attractive young man and woman have an intense sexual relationship based on, guess what? ... anatomy. She's an artist, he's a radiologist. No surprises so far. The errors in the medical details make this film painfully amateurish for anyone familiar with hospital practice. A few examples: The radiologist is actually taking the plain films, alone. This is about as likely as the bank manager being at the teller's window. The radiologist does an MRI on the girl, again, alone. Where does he get the contrast? How does he think nobody will see the images, since they are all on the computer? The machines don't work until all of the patient information is entered, etc. (Billing, you know.) The coup de grâce for silliness (not to mention disgust) is when he gives her a spinal anesthetic and opens her abdomen, again, alone, and buries his face in her lower abdomen or pelvis, filling her peritoneum with virulent organisms from his mouth. She can't be enjoying it since there are no sensory nerves to speak of inside of that area, and she has a spinal. Really silly. The French make some wonderful films. This is not one of them.

Héléna, who is pursuing a degree in anatomical drawing meets Benoît, a radiologist and professor, when she sees him for X-rays after complaining of lower back pain. Their mutual interest in human anatomy draws them into an intense relationship where they explore each others bodies in unconventional ways. Héléna has a photographic memory, and and uses it to create detailed drawings of the human body and its internal organs. Benoît develops a fetish-like obsession with the human skeleton and internal organs while working with X-ray and MRI images. The MRI imagery even becomes an art medium to him, stimulating his fetish.After no cause for the back pain is found on Héléna's X-rays, Benoît offers to examine her with the MRI machine. Héléna agrees, and Benoît's insatiable curiosity about the internal details of Héléna's body leads to increasingly dangerous acts of exploration.Héléna (Annabelle Hettmann) and Benoît (Thibault Vinçon), are a fairly attractive young couple with good on-screen chemistry. The directing and camera work were good. The screenplay was good enough to hold my interest, but with a major flaw. There is a dramatic plot twist about half way through that is inexplicable to me. I watched the movie all the way through twice, and I can only conclude that the writer wanted to insert some drama, without being too concerned about developing it plausibly. The subtitles contained many incorrect translations. However, the translation errors didn't affect the meaning significantly, and may just be a result of the translator taking liberties.The writer went for extreme shock, in a morbid way for the ending. I think this was overdone, and a decent storyline was instantly reduced to cheesy, laughable, B-movie status.
