"Beautifully unsettling" - The Guardian

Lucile Hadzihalilovic's surrealist Art House-Thriller is a visual masterpiece; the partner of Gasper Noe (director of Enter the Void), Lucile's visuals are of equal stature whilst distinctly her own. Chilling yet undoubtedly stunning, 'Evolution' explores the wonders and dangers of curiosity as Nicolas, a young boy growing up on a strange island, begins to examine the dubious and mysterious world around him.


Spooky, tantalizing and beautifully shot and designed, Evolution creates a cinematic world that’s utterly sui generis...
