Inland Empire
A woman in trouble.
Directed by David Lynch
Produced by Absurda, StudioCanal
A nightmarish, deliberately fragmented descent into madness where identity dissolves across colliding realities, blending film-within-film, supernatural curse, and psychological unraveling into an almost impenetrable labyrinth.
When actress Nikki Grace gets the lead role in a cursed film, her world becomes more and more surreal, blending realities and ideas of infidelity, reincarnation, and supernatural forces.
