UVF 10 – 29 NEEDLES – Directed with extraordinary intensity by Scott Philip Goergens, this shocking and consistently gripping drama charts the physical and psychological decline of its protagonist through elements of body horror. Memorable not only for its unflinching approach, but also for its explicit depiction of hardcore sexual content, 29 NEEDLES is powerful and deeply affecting extreme cinema—uncompromising, yet never exploitative for its own sake. A film for viewers willing to explore the outer limits of cinematic expression.
Francis, an emotionally detached loner, finds no comfort in the real world. Only within his bizarre and increasingly extreme fantasy life does he seem to gain a sense of control through pain - until a disturbing underground subculture pulls him ever deeper into the abyss. Driven by suffering, desire, and a longing for redemption, he crosses every conceivable boundary, both physical and psychological. Through uncompromising imagery and an unfiltered examination of isolation, identity, and sexual deviance, 29 NEEDLES is not a film for the faint of heart, but a radical contribution to transgressive cinema.
