In the award-winning A24 Studios debut from English filmmaker Harry Lighton, Harry Melling (Harry Potter, The Queen’s Gambit) and Alexander Skargård (Melancholia, The Northman) play characters that come from opposite sides of the personality spectrum to explore a passionate BDSM relationship.

Introvert Colin (Melling) lives a grey life as a middle-aged parking attendant who still resides with his parents. The only splashes of color in his humdrum days are participating in a barbershop quartet and visits to the local pub. That all changes when, on a night out, Colin encounters a devastatingly handsome street biker (Skarsgård) who seems to offer some excitement. The two strike up an affair that quickly leads to a romance. As things progress, Ray proves to be the more dominant of the two, though Colin finds pleasure in playing the submissive role to Ray’s demands. When the death of Colin’s mother threatens to unravel the intricate relationship, the two struggle to decide whether the current dynamic is enough to maintain a long-term companionship.

Iconic writer-director-musician Jim Jarmusch’s latest comedy-drama is an anthology of familial relationships from around the world starring an ensemble cast that includes Adam Driver, Tom Waits, Mayim Bialik, and Cate Blanchett!

Structured as a triptych, the film follows three family groups who all struggle with the ties that bind one another together and the dysfunction that arises when secrets are kept from the ones we love:  In the US, siblings travel to meet their estranged and reclusive father who seems wealthier than normal; In Dublin, Ireland, an aging writer is reunited with her daughters on the one day each year that they see each other only to discover that all is not well; and, in Paris, two siblings share memories of their parents who died tragically in a plane crash and later learn some secret truths about who they really were. Brilliantly tying these stories together is a gold Rolex watch — a symbol of the passage of time, perhaps..? — that plays an important role in each of the narratives.
