A daring performance, digital love and an odd admirer. Liquid love. Suspense. A film that goes beyond the screen.

Lluís Garau, a young dancer, has created a performance inspired by Chatroulette, a platform that connects strangers at random via video call. In his restless search for connection and meaning, he becomes entangled in a series of increasingly unsettling encounters where desire, fear, and exposure merge with art and intimacy.

Director Joan Porcel, an expert in portraying artists’ creative processes through the documentary format, focuses this time on the young choreographer Lluís Garau and his experimental work and innovative journey. This serves as an initial frame for exploring the boundaries between fiction and reality while reflecting on the contemporary sexual-affective relationships.

“La Carn” portrays the human body without filters as a place of search and confrontation, and the digital space as a territory where the soul blurs and obsession takes shape. Exposed, Lluís moves between the real and virtual worlds until the boundary breaks. Multiple screens, no borders, genuine artistic research, and the dissolution of the fourth wall: this is a true Rebel film.
