Divinity

“A boldly demented science fiction saga that melds the unsettling body horror of David Cronenberg and the seductive surrealism of David Lynch with a menacing video game-inflected spirit of its own.” — The Daily Beast 

In a barren dystopia, scientist Sterling Pierce has dedicated his life to the quest for immortality, slowly creating the building blocks of a groundbreaking serum named ‘Divinity’. His son Jaxxon (Stephen Dorff) now controls and manufactures his father’s once-benevolent dream, and is developing plans to commercialise the drug, causing horrible ramifications for humanity. That is, until two cosmic brothers crash into the decaying Earth to abduct Jaxxon and put a stop to his monstrous scheme.

Written and directed by Eddie Alcazar, produced by Steven Soderbergh (Solaris) and gorgeously shot on 16mm black and white reversal film, Divinity is a mind-melting retro-futurist experience like no other. Featuring an eclectic ensemble cast that includes Stephen Dorff, former teen star Bella Thorne (The DUFF), four-time Mr. Universe champion Michael O’Hearn, TV star Karrueche Tran (TNT’s Claws) and contemporary adult film performer Emily Willis. This future cult classic must be seen to be believed.
