Oscar-winning director Asif Kapadia's unsettling drama-documentary delivers a powerful commentary on the state of the world today… and tomorrow.

Oscar-winning director Asif Kapadia (Senna, Amy) is equally at home in fiction and documentary, and his latest project is a genre-bending synthesis. Set in a brutal, totalitarian future world, the director draws on science fiction as a lens through which ‘to examine the huge questions we are facing as a species’ in the hope that society may find solutions before extinction. Samantha Morton adds dramatic heft to this innovative, bold and unconventional film, inspired by Chris Marker’s La Jetée and with overtones of Andrei Tarkovsky’s Stalker.
