Three Mirrors Creature's Flashes of Flesh, also known as Flashes of Flesh, is a 2023 science fiction arthouse drama film conceived, written, produced, shot, edited and directed by Giuliano Tomassacci and starring Michela Bruni, both of which worked on the script.[1][2] It is Tomassacci's first film in a directorial role.[1] The cast features Samantha Abear, Claudio Losavio and Federica Pocaterra.[3][4][5][6] With a running time of seven hours and twenty-two minutes[7] it is among the longest films ever made.[8][9]

The film is largely black-and-white (with some scenes tinted blue), has no spoken dialogue,[10] and alternates multi-dynamic image technique[11] with fast-paced editing[12][13] and long takes.[14][15]

It was selected as a semi-finalist at the 2022 Blow-Up Chicago International Arthouse Film Festival[16] and premiered at the Filmhuis Klappei in Antwerp on December 9, 2023 in its full-length version[17] interspersed by four intermissions.[18] The full length feature version premiered in North America on the UVOTv streaming platform in July 2024.[19]

The film focuses on an unscrupulous successful manager (Bruni)[20][21] who converts to an ascetic life embarking on an enlightening journey.[22][8][23]
