A new behind-the-scenes
featurette for writer/director Alex Garland's (28 Days Later, Sunshine) Ex
Machina is asking what it means to be human and alive.
Opening on January 23 in the
UK and on April 25 in the US, Ex Machina revolves
around a computer programmer (Domhall Gleeson)
who wins a contest to meet the CEO of one of the largest internet search engine
companies in the world (Oscar Isaac), however he soon finds out that he is actually a part of
a experiment to test an artificial intelligence (Alicia
Vikander).
Ex Machina
Official Synopsis:
Alex Garland, writer of 28
Days Later and Sunshine, makes his directorial
debut with the stylish and cerebral thriller, EX MACHINA. Caleb
Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a
competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s
brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac). Upon his arrival,
Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing
Test—charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the
consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That
experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional
intelligence proves more sophisticated, seductive––and more deceptive––than the
two men could have imagined.
