“Out of Blue” features an award-winning ensemble cast, including Patricia Clarkson, James Caan, Toby Jones, Jacki Weaver and Mamie Gummer. The film was a hit at the Toronto and London Film Festivals.
The hunt for a killer draws a detective into an even larger mystery: the nature of the universe itself. Mike Hoolihan (Patricia Clarkson) is an unconventional New Orleans cop investigating the murder of renowned astrophysicist Jennifer Rockwell (Mamie Gummer), a black hole expert found shot to death in her observatory.
As Mike tumbles down the rabbit hole of the disturbing, labyrinthine case, she finds herself grappling with increasingly existential questions of quantum mechanics, parallel universes, and exploding stars—cosmic secrets that may hold the key to unraveling the crime, while throwing into doubt her very understanding of reality.
Awash in dreamlike, neo-noir atmosphere, this one-of-a-kind thriller is both a tantalizing whodunnit and a rich, metaphysical mind-bender.
Critics are calling “Out of Blue” mesmerizing, thrilling, stylish and dazzling.
