Representing a monumental leap in poise and craft, it is also Bonello's most subtle work in terms of provocation and shocking or subversive imagery.

Naturally the most polarizing film of the Main Competition film so far would come from Bertrand Bonello. L'Apollonide House of Tolerance is his return back into the Main Comp since 2003's Tiresia.
