Reteaming director Luca Guadagnino and his Call Me By Your Name star Timothée Chalamet, Bones and All proves a deeply romantic and thought-provoking treat, albeit one with a thoroughly unconventional twist.
After her father grows tired and disappears one day, Maren, a teenage cannibal, goes on a journey of self-discovery across America to find her mother and get an understanding of who she truly is. On this journey, she meets others just like her, good and bad. This doomed cannibalistic love story is displayed through the acting of Taylor Russell and Timothée Chalamet as the main characters, along with Mark Rylance, André Holland, and Chloë Sevigny.

“It’s on the nose in all the right ways for this majestically seedy, deeply creepy and altogether beautiful love story about an ever-consuming hunger.” — Stephen Garrett, Book & Film Globe
“Luca Guadagnino delivers another tour-de-force film in Bones and All, featuring career-best performances from Taylor Russell and Timothée Chalamet.” — Maxance Vincent, Film Speak
“Combining tones and artistic choices that have no right to be together, yet dazzle in spite of this, Guadagnino has created something harrowing and heart-wrenching, but also spellbindingly gorgeous.” — Calum Cooper, In Their Own League
