PREVIEW: Dual (15)

WHO’S IN IT?

Karen Gillan (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle), Aaron Paul (Need for Speed), Theo James (Divergent), Beulah Koale (One Thousand Ropes), Maija Paunio (The Novelist), Sanna-June Hyde (The Green Fix), Andrei Alén (The Nest), Kristofer Gummerus (Rendel)

WHO’S BEHIND THE CAMERA?

Riley Stearns (The Art of Self-Defence), director, writer, producer; Nate Bolotin (Mandy), Maxime Cottray (Book of Love), Lee Kim (Flashback), Nick Spicer (I Kill Giants) and Aram Tertzakian (Apostle), producers; Emma Ruth Rundle (film debut), composer; Michael Ragen (Desert Cathedral), cinematographer; Sarah Beth Shapiro (I Blame Society), editor

WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Sarah (Gillan), a depressed alcoholic, learns that she has a terminal illness which she is very unlikely to survive. In response, she agrees to have a clone of herself (also Gillan) created to take her place after she dies – but when Sarah makes a miraculous recovery, and with Sarah’s clone refusing to go away, both Sarahs are forced to prepare for a dual to the death…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Two Karen Gillans are better than one, as this darkly funny deadpan satire proves with the actress taking on two roles that happen to also be the same person.
