Celebrated French filmmaker Claire Denis returns with her first English language feature, a sci-fi film about a unique paternal relationship played across deep space. Boasting a script by novelist Zadie Smith and husband Nick Laird, the story follows a group of criminals on a mission to find an alternate energy source near a black hole. They’re soon sexually experimented on by the scientists on board. Robert Pattinson plays one of the criminals who finds he now has a daughter against his will (she was gestated through artificial insemination) and soon comes to love her. The film screened at Toronto to excellent reviews that called the film challenging and confounding.
