Ali plays Cameron, a father and husband facing an extremely difficult decision as he also faces the inevitability of his death. His doctor offers a possible solution that would save his family from mourning his death: Create another identical version of him, who has the same memories, to replace him.
It’s possible to see how this translates into a deep identity and existential internal conflict among the two estranged Cameron. The trailer shows them arguing emotionally, one shouting in the other’s face, “You are not me!
This thought-provoking original drama with a sci-fi twist, which makes us wonder how much we would be willing to give up for the happiness of those we love, is written and directed by the Oscar winner. Benjamin Claire (Stutterer).
