Bloody Disgusting has learned of an upcoming body-horror movie titled Grafted this week, with Variety reporting that Sasha Rainbow (Kamali) will be directing the feature film.

The UK’s Mister Smith Entertainment has picked up international rights to the upcoming movie, Variety also reports, and they’ll be launching sales next month in Cannes.

“The film tells story of a Chinese student who travels to New Zealand to complete the scientific work of her deceased father only to find a new way of achieving popularity, one body at a time.”

“I am incredibly excited about playing in the body-horror space for such an incredible, surprising, female-lead-project like Grafted,” Sasha Rainbow said in a statement.

Joyena Sun, Jared Turner, Jess Hong, Eden Hart, Sepiutaruth To’a, Ginette McDonald and Mark Mitchinson star in Rainbow’s feature debut.

“We loved Grafted from the first page and after hearing Sasha’s pitch we jumped at the chance to bring this to the market,” said Shane Kelly, V.P. international sales & distribution at Mister Smith. “It’s exactly the sort of unique, high-concept genre film buyers are craving, that can pull in a younger audience. We’re confident it will delight and disgust in equal measure.”
