BODY ODYSSEY is premiering on IndiePix Unlimited today, February 28.

Here’s the film’s synopsis:

A contender to become Miss Body Universe, Mona (Jacqueline “Jay” Fuchs) is a 45-year-old champion bodybuilder whose entire existence is a spasmodic quest for perfection and beauty. Her daily schedule is carefully followed by her obsessive coach, Kurt (Julian Sands in one of his final performances), who rigorously monitors her every action like a demiurge: her sleep, her nutrition, her training, her doping, her psychology and even her sexual life. This unyielding regimen, however, becomes disrupted when a brief romantic encounter with a young man impacts both her discipline and her will.

Combining elements of Cronenberg-esque body horror with psychological drama, BODY ODYSSEY is the genre-bending and surreal debut feature from award-winning director Grazia Tricarico, who captured Best Director at Sitges in 2024.

Directed by Grazia Tricarico and written by Marco Morana, Giulio Rizzo and Grazia Tricarico. Starring Jacqueline Fuchs, Julian Sands, Adam Misik, Stefan Sauk, Lukas Loughran, Hanna Ullerstam and Maximilian Dirr. The film’s producers are Donatello Della Pepa, Salvatore Lizzio, Federico Giacinti, Antonella Volpe, Riccardo Di Pasquale, Olga Lamontanara, Michela Pini and Amel Soudani.
