The story of 'Titane' begins with Alexia, a woman who suffers severe head trauma in a car accident as a child. A titanium plate is fitted into her skull to save her life. Years later, she develops an unusual attraction to cars, bordering on objectum sexuality, which leads her to reject her parents and embrace her passion for automobiles. Meanwhile, Vincent, a firefighter, struggles with his own emotional problems, attempting to maintain his strength through steroid injections despite his aging body. The film takes a dramatic turn when Alexia becomes pregnant, seemingly immaculately, leading to bizarre consequences that intertwine her story with Vincent's when he believes she is his long-lost son who had gone missing ten years ago.
'Titane', directed by Julia Ducournau in 2021, is a Belgian-French film that blends drama, horror, psychological thriller elements, and sci-fi. The movie follows Alexia, whose childhood car accident left her with a titanium plate in her head, and Vincent, a firefighter grappling with personal demons. The narrative explores themes of trauma, sexuality, masculinity, and emotional turmoil through these characters' intersecting journeys. Despite the sparse plot details available from the provided sources, 'Titane' promises to be a unique cinematic experience given its distinctive blend of genres and Ducournau's previous acclaimed work.
