High Life

In Claire Denis's unsettling sci-fi epic "High Life," a group of death-row inmates are subjected to gruesome experiments on a perilous space mission toward a black hole. As they hurtle toward oblivion, their humanity is tested by the unforgiving vastness of space and the sinister intentions of their sadistic doctor, Dibs. With its unflinching gaze into the abyss of human nature, "High Life" is a thought-provoking meditation on survival, morality, and the unpredictable nature of humanity's backbone.
