Sinopsis(1)
En un laboratorio parisino, una mano cortada escapa a su infeliz destino y se propone reconectar con su cuerpo en esta selección de la Semana Internacional de la Crítica de Cannes. A lo largo de una espeluznante escapada por toda la ciudad, la extremidad se defiende tanto de las palomas como de las ratas para reunirse con el pizzero Naoufel . Sus recuerdos de Naoufel y su amor por la bibliotecaria Gabrielle pueden proporcionar respuestas sobre lo que causó la separación de la mano del cuerpo, y un telón de fondo poético para una posible reunión entre los tres.

Somehow I’m unable to get rid of a notion that whenever I come across a nice adult animated movie lately there are French animators involved. It almost looks like there is a wave of creators in France who are full of ideas and aren’t afraid to use them. I Lost My Body is exactly the type of adult animated movie that has great music, very nice animation and many interesting ideas. With its premise this movie goes into the realm of the abstract, and therefore it is necessary to watch what is happening on the screen. As Dzeyna wrote on this site, weird but in some way really interesting.

A captivatingly enchanting tactile elegy that is hooked in the heart in a way that does stay in your mind for a long time, if at all. It is difficult to say whether I more admire the self-confidence with which Clapin is not afraid to be original or the self-confidence of the execution and portrayal of such difficult-to-grasp feelings as melancholy, nostalgia, desolation, hope, loss and love. And to add another compliment, Levy's congenially hypnotic soundtrack should be mentioned, and then also... No, that would take too long. This is simply one of the movies of the decade. And no, there is nothing missing in the previous sentence; I really mean it.

Pure beauty, absorbing, intoxicating, physical and wonderful. A captivatingly intense, tactile film that can be a crucial initiation experience for a young person and restore an older person’s faith in film, recalling the power of this medium. It is an encounter with respectable talent that sets forth a completely original vision, which is at the same time thought out and refined to the smallest detail without losing anything from the immediate magic of raw creativity. I Lost My Body is a film after which you want to immediately move from the screening room to a wooden igloo on the roof and let everything sink in for a long time and let the scenes get under your skin. This suggestive odyssey across the beautiful and merciless corners of a single city and a whole life never runs out of ideas and the viewer will never have the upper hand. Not only is this an enthrallingly unpredictable story imbued with melancholy as well as humanism and beauty standing apart from the usual clichés, it also uncompromisingly pulls the viewer into a spiral of a distinctive vision that one can only yield to and admire.

El cine es un medio por el cual se pueden decir incluso cosas que no se pueden comunicar a través de ningún otro medio. La prueba más reciente es esta película animada, un géiser de ideas creativas, de guion y de dirección formal, eso en cuanto al contenido, pero además es emocionalmente cautivadora, impredecible, se pensó hasta en el más mínimo detalle y, en definitiva, es hermosa y sorprendente. La historia cuenta cómo lidiar con la pérdida a nivel mental y físico y se desarrolla en dos mundos paralelos, uno en el que seguimos la historia del protagonista, un repartidor de pizzas enamorado, y en el otro presenciamos una odisea surrealista y llena de suspenso de su mano cortada accidentalmente que cobra vida y decide encontrar a su propietario. Una película impresionante, intensa y nítidamente original que va siempre un paso adelante del espectador, juega inteligentemente con motivos individuales, imágenes específicas y estructura narrativa y, precisamente, con facilidad y humor, pero también con una gran parte de tristeza cumple una visión única y distintiva que lo cautivará por completo; y como beneficio adicional, apreciará y valorará sus manos.

Grab is a truly remarkable film that captivates the viewer with its unconventional, raw and melancholic theme. A hand searches for its "master", while the "master" has a life crisis and at the same time experiences deep feelings for a librarian. A sometimes bizarre sequence of events unfolds to the sound of a haunting musical score, leading to a (un)satisfying ending. Personally, I had a hard time relating to the character of Naoufel, who, due to his childhood indiscretion and later adult inattention, finds himself in a precarious situation (almost through his own fault) – perhaps a harsh judgement on the protagonist on my part, but it just felt that way. Regardless, it doesn't change the fact that this is a solidly made piece that deserves attention.

When was the last time you took a good look at your hands and thought about how essential they are to you? When was the last time you felt grateful for them? Whether you want to use a lighter, ring the doorbell, pat someone on the cheek, unlock your door, wipe your tears... you need hands. After this film, you won't notice anything else for a few days. And that's why I Lost My Body is one of the few understated films I'm grateful for. It is not predictable, it is unconventionally absorbing. It has two intertwined story lines: one is cute, tender and touching, the other is raw and even horrific. They are accompanied by Dan Levy's fantastically haunting and enchanting music, and together, it all makes one big unforgettable must see piece of work.
