American film director, co-writer/director of Another Earth (2011) and director of I Origins (2014).

Co-wrote Another Earth with Brit Marling; Another Earth premiered and was acclaimed at Sundance in 2011. Reviews describe Another Earth as a low-budget, indie, introspective film blending minimal sci-fi premises with intimate drama; the film stars Brit Marling and William Mapother. The film's atmosphere and score (credited to Fall on Your Sword in reviews) and handheld/dark visual tones were noted by reviewers.

Reviews describe Another Earth as an introspective, low-budget indie sci-fi drama co-written and starring Brit Marling. Critics praised the acting, atmosphere and themes (loneliness, remorse, social estrangement) but found the film slow and lacking in narrative drive. The film was noted for its Sundance acclaim and minimalist, contemplative style.

For:Fans of introspective independent cinema, quiet science-fiction, and character-driven dramas.

 Yet, there is something that must be made clear from the outset: "Another Earth" is not a science fiction film.
