Coralie Fargeat makes cinema that bleeds — unapologetic, provocative, and political. She turns genre into weaponry, using excess, horror, and precision to dissect how women’s bodies are seen — and reclaimed. Her film The Substance (2024) won Best Screenplay at Cannes and earned five Oscar nominations, including Best Director. She debuted with Revenge (2017) and has also directed campaigns for Nike and Bumble.
