Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

Enter the Void director Gaspar Noé has unveiled the poster for his next film Love, which suggests it will take a very literal interpretation of the word.

If Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac epic shocked with its very blunt and frank depiction of intimacy, Love looks to be going even more visceral and uncompromising.

You can view the poster here, which, seriously, is as NSFW as a promotional movie poster gets.

The image of a penis ejaculating onto breasts has a 70s aspect to it in the hue and resolution, but is, perhaps intentionally, difficult to read aside from this.

All we know of the plot is that Love will tell the story of a love triangle between a boy and two girls in the style of a melodrama.

Noe's last film, Enter the Void, centred on a wounded American drug dealer in Tokyo nightclubs having an out-of-body experience.

Love has been selected to be screened at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival, which will also see the premiere of Gus Van Sant's Matthew McConaughey-starring The Sea of Trees, which is about a forest in Japan where people often go to kill themselves.
