Dual

In a thought-provoking near-future thriller, Karen Gillan plays Sarah, a terminally ill woman who undergoes cloning to spare her loved ones from grief. After miraculously recovering, she must fight a clone of herself to the death in a court-mandated duel, forcing her to confront her own mortality and the consequences of playing with human life. With its intriguing premise and deadpan satire, "Dual" is an unorthodox exploration of identity, intimacy, and what it means to be human - though its execution falls short of its ambitious ideas.
