Gael García Bernal, Renate Reinsve, Bérénice Bejo Topline Piero Messina’s Sci-Fi Film ‘Another End,’ Newen Connect Launches Sales at EFM (EXCLUSIVE)
Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent Gael García Bernal and Renate Reinsve (“The Worse Person in the World”) will soon be appearing on screen as lovers caught in an unusual bind in Italian director Piero Messina’s sci-fi film “Another End.” French sales company Newen Connect is launching sales on the pic at the European Film Market. “Another End” is set in a near-future when a new technology exists that can put the consciousness of a dead person back into a living body, in an attempt to ease the grief of separation, providing a little extra time to say goodbye. The English-language sci-fier by Messina — whose first feature, “The Wait,” launched with a splash in the 2015 Venice competition — sees Bernal play Sal, a man whose wife dies, and Reinsve as Zoe, the woman who then becomes his partner after renting out her body, in which the memory and consciousness of Sal’s former wife have been temporarily implanted.
