French Indie Sci-Fi Drama Tropic Gets A UK Trailer

Blue Finch Films have released the UK Trailer for French indie sci-fi drama Tropic. Brotherly love is put to the test in the conquest into space.

Directed by Edouard Salier starring Pablo Cobo and Louis Peres as our brothers. In a film that was described as a sci-fi with a big slice of David Cronenberg.

It’s all about a couple of brothers who train to be the first generation of European Astronauts to colonise an unnamed planet. Things change when when the brothers an a unidentified object crashes into that pool with the residue disfiguring one of the brothers. This forces the other to continue training and accepting what his brother has become.

I was fortunate to watch this film at Glasgow Film Festival last year. I gave it 4 stars and described the film as a “beautifully haunting and complex drama with fantastic performances from the entire cast“.
