Mike Cahill’s I Origins landed on my radar from the moment the film was announced. Mainly because the last time Cahill and Brit Marling teamed up together they knocked it out of the park with Another Earth. Adding to my anticipation was the flood of positive reactions from its Sundance debut earlier in the year.

The film stirs the debate between faith and science when a molecular biologist (played by Michael Pitt) uncovers a scientific discovery that could have a major impact on both science and society. This first trailer may give too many details away, but I Origins looks to be another captivating indie sci-fi from Cahill and Marling.

I Origins will be released on July 18th.
