Event Description:
Who hasn’t dreamed of a better version of themselves? Aging TV star Elisabeth Sparkle (Demi Moore) gets the opportunity to try a miraculous substance that can make her younger, more beautiful, and perfect. However, there’s a catch: she must share her time. One week for her, one week for her new self, Sue (Margaret Qualley). Every seven days. A perfect balance. Simple, right? If everything is followed, what could go wrong? This film, directed by Coralie Fargeat, is a sharp, striking, and shocking satire that stunned the Cannes Film Festival and won the Best Screenplay Award.
