The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

The Shrouds

Karsh, an innovative and prominent businessman, is inconsolable following the death of his wife.

In his grief, he invents 'GraveTech', a revolutionary and controversial technology, that enables the living to monitor the dead in their burial shrouds.

One day, he discovers that multiple graves, including that of his wife, are desecrated, so he sets out to track down those responsible.

From the master of sci-fi body-horror, director David Cronenberg (The Fly, Scanners, Crimes of the Future) comes a haunting vision of love, loss and grief like you've never seen before.

Starring Vincent Cassel (Eastern Promises, Black Swan, La Haine), Diane Kruger (Inglourious Basterds), Guy Pearce (The Brutalist, Memento) and Sandrine Holt (Yang Yang).
