Anna, 18, agrees to transform her body through cosmetic surgery broadcast live on television, hoping to please her mother and resemble an idolised influencer; but each operation is voted on live by the public, who decide her appearance like a product, and the quest for beauty and validation turns into a dystopian nightmare.

The scouts
A live-vote body-horror premise that weaponizes the democratization myth—most scouts would reflexively recoil, but Arnaudet's willingness to let the public actually *be* the villain is the kind of subversive move that makes consensus look cowardly.
Sits at the intersection of Black Mirror proceduralism and European body-horror cinema, though the 2-minute constraint risks collapsing what could be a more formally considered meditation on surgical transformation and spectacle into provocation without depth.
The masterstroke here is letting the voting mechanic do the thematic work—that single formal decision (making the audience complicit in real-time rather than retrospectively) transforms what could've been a sermon into something that actually *feels* like algorithmic dehumanization.
