Very interesting and promising film. A nice idea, and all that ruined by the last 10 minutes stupid ending. Sad!

Struggling artists and broken down characters ... it will not be easy to completely sympathize with the main character (one of them that is) and it has not so much to do with the profession she "chose" for herself, but rather the way she aims to reach her goals. But then again, if you don't have a flawed protagonist, where would the friction be? In this case, we get an added bonus of a different path ... The main actress has quite some baggage to carry.

Strong female characters (with as mentioned before flaws, but nevertheless) are not that common in film, so it is refreshing to see this. And while the script may feel unfocused at points, the story is so weird and out there ... no pun intended. But it does make up for it for sure. If you like slow pacing drama, with small Science Fiction and social issues fragments woven into it ... this is for you

This is a very sublime mystery scifi that leans toward potential sociopolitical commentary through the juxtaposition of the character doubles. Definitely influenced by Kieslowski's The Double Life of Véronique. Very glad to have found this gem.

Also, surprised Lewis Black appears in a brief non comedy cameo role.

So funny to read reviews that now use identity directing as a base for like or dislike. "More female directed sci-fi please" is just a laughable base for a review opinion. Anyways, the movie definitely resembles Under the Skin and it just was kind of dull. If this would have been part of a larger plot it would have been fine. A whole movie was too much. Ending was awful. Watch if you like. I didn't get much out of this. More 3rd cousin twice removed sci-fi directors please!!! Couldn't resist.

I'm all for female directed sci-fi but I'd like for it to also make sense. The story was dull and unoriginal and the acting was stiff and unbelievable.
