A planet
remarkably like Earth has been discovered. Meanwhile Rhoda (Marling) is
released from prison where she has served time for vehicular manslaughter while
drunk, in which a woman and child died. She discovers that the husband John
(Mapother) has now come out of his long coma. She seeks him out but doesn’t
dare to reveal who she is. He is a wreck.
A most unusual sci fi film. More a study of grief
and guilt with a cosmic background, a parallel universe?
An unexpected existential gem.
