Will they risk their relationship & personal identity for a chance to survive in a new world?
"Marital drama and science fiction come together in 'Foe,' a film directed by Garth Davis (Lion: A Long Way Home), based on the novel by Iain Reid, and starring Paul Mescal (Aftersun) and the always impeccable Saoirse Ronan (Little Women). The story, set in an apocalyptic 2065, follows a couple, Hen and Junior, leading a mundane life until a stranger appears at their door with a surprising proposition: to participate in the OuterMore space colony, while a robotic replica of one of them stays on Earth to live with their spouse. Despite having a somewhat slow pace, the film presents interesting ideas about human identity and the search for meaning in an increasingly dehumanized world, like a blend between the powerful classic "Never Let Me Go" and an episode of Black Mirror."
