It is unclear if the young<br />
man (Garrett Wareing) has<br />
committed the horrible crime,<br />
but his mother (Abbie Cornish)<br />
sends him to a luxurious retreat<br />
full of beautiful hedonistic<br />
people for therapy. He will<br />
receive an experimental<br />
treatment to cure his ills and<br />
discover his true self. His<br />
mother has been there, but<br />
does she want to help him<br />
become ‘perfect’?<br />
Frenetic editing, soul shocking<br />
set-pieces and some eye-popping<br />
animation by Kidmograph:<br />
PERFECT alternates between<br />
calm and chaos, and picks at<br />
themes of AI, genetic engineering<br />
and esotericism.<br />
With its super-heightened visuals<br />
worthy of Gasper Noé, production<br />
design that DAZED would find<br />
hard to beat and a stunning<br />
soundtrack by Flying Lotus,<br />
this is ALTERED STATES for the<br />
iGeneration.<br />
Introduced by Güneş Taylor,<br />
a Postdoctoral Training Fellow<br />
at the Francis Crick Institute.<br />
Güneş will discuss topics such<br />
as genome editing and human<br />
enhancement. In association<br />
with The Biochemical Society<br />
