The Future
Directed by Miranda July
Produced by GNK Productions, The Match Factory
A dreamlike, metaphysically strange meditation on commitment and mortality, where a couple's adoption of a cat becomes a catalyst for existential transformation and temporal disruption.
When a couple decides to adopt a stray cat their perspective on life changes radically, literally altering the course of time and space and testing their faith in each other and themselves.
