Set in the mid-1990s, "Climax" follows a French dance troupe who gather in a remote, empty school building to rehearse. The celebration turns nightmarish as they discover their sangria is laced with LSD, leading to a chaotic descent into a frenzied, hypnotic, and increasingly violent nightmare.
➱ STAFF REVIEW:
Gaspar Noé's "Climax" is an intoxicating blend of art and horror, showcasing his unique visual style and ability to evoke visceral emotions. The film is a provocative exploration of the human psyche under extreme conditions, driven by a pulsating soundtrack and energetic dance sequences.
