Synopsis: I Origins, the second feature film from
writer and director Mike Cahill, tells the story of Dr. Ian Gray (Michael
Pitt), a molecular biologist studying the evolution of the eye. He finds his
work permeating his life after a brief encounter with an exotic young woman
(Astrid Bergès-Frisbey) who slips away from him. As his research continues
years later with his lab partner Karen (Brit Marling), they make a stunning
scientific discovery that has far reaching implications and complicates both
his scientific and spiritual beliefs. Traveling half way around the world, he
risks everything he has ever known to validate his theory. Also starring Steven
Yeun and Archie Panjabi, the film is produced by Mike Cahill, Hunter Gray and
Alex Orlovsky.
