As mankind teeters on the verge of global war, Banks and the team race against time for answers--and to find them, she will take a chance that could threaten her life, and quite possibly humanity. Filmed in Quebec with Canadian crew and directed by Quebec director Denis Villeneuve (Incendies, Blade Runner 2049)

"By turns inviting and opaque, Ms. Adams turns softness and quiet into heroic qualities, keeping her voice low, modulated, and using stillness to draw you near." - Manohla Dargis, New York Times
