Another Earth is a low-key film which mixes life’s unexpected twists and turns and the complexities of human relationships with a dash of science fiction. The result is a superb and original drama.
This small-budget film is beautiful and moving, with a great storyline accompanied by good acting. Brit Marling, in the lead role, is mesmerising.
The screenplay was co-written by Marling and director Mike Cahill. At the 2011 Sundance Film Festival, the film won the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize as well as the Special Jury Prize.
