Everything Must Go Edition with Bonus Footage

After a therapist's patient disappears into a dimension beyond reality, she must venture into the unknown to save him.

In Detail

Clark (Chiwetel Ejiofor) – a divorced, failed architect who owns a furniture showroom – discovers a door to an ever-replicating space behind his store’s walls, its furniture either piled up or half-melted into the floor, and entirely vacant except for the lingering sense that it’s not.

His therapist, Dr Kline (‘Sentimental Value’s Renate Reinsve), as well as his junior employees are rightly concerned. The two leads are clever casting choices as neither is associated with the genre, making this production feel fresh. Described by The Guardian as ‘The Blair Witch Project meets ‘Severance’ or ‘The Shining’ set in an infinite Travelodge, or maybe the exact opposite of a Wes Anderson movie.

“Mesmeric and wildly unique in a way I suspect will stand the test of time”. – The Independent.
