Karsh is an innovative businessman and grieving widower unable to let go of his late wife. His solution is unsettlingly intimate: a device that allows the living to connect with the dead inside their burial shrouds. But what begins as an act of mourning soon becomes something darker, pulling Karsh into a world of obsession, surveillance, conspiracy and desire.

Rialto Recommends THE SHROUDS is a cool, uncanny meditation on grief, technology and the bodies we leave behind. Elegant, cerebral and deeply strange, it finds David Cronenberg in haunting late-career form-turning mourning into mystery, and intimacy into something deliciously disquieting.
