Argentinian filmmaker Gaspar Noe (Irreversible, Enter the Void) is gearing up to shoot his first feature since 2015’s Love with his new project Psyche, and thanks to Les Temps Detruit Toups (via The Playlist), we have a synopsis for the film which is said to take place during the mid-90s:
The story will follow twenty urban dancers joined together for a three-day rehearsal in a closed down boarding school located at the heart of a forest, to share one last dance. They then celebrate one last party around a large sangria bowl.
The atmosphere becomes charged and a strange madness seizes them the whole night. They’ve been drugged, but they don’t know by who or why and soon it is impossible for them to resist to their neurosis and psychoses, numbed by the hypnotic and the increasing electric rhythm of the music. Some drift in paradise, but most of them plunge into hell.
Psyche will shoot for two weeks, with a budget of $3 million, and Noe is aiming to have the film ready to hit the festival circuit later in the year.
