The Future
Synopsis
Idiosyncratically quirky writer-actor-director Miranda July follows her 2005 debut, Me and You and Everyone We Know, with this existentialist comedy-drama that's narrated by a cat. Sophie and Jason are in their mid-30s, childless and stuck in jobs that were supposed to be 'just for now' - she teaches dance to kids, he operates an IT helpdesk from their shared home - but have instead seemingly set them on a road to nowhere. The realisation that, if they want to make something of their lives, they need to find direction pretty damn soon hits with a jolt. One upshot is that they decide to adopt a down-on-its-luck cat from a shelter; the feline, Paw-Paw, provides a commentary on the couple's lives. But Jason and Sophie are also prompted to change jobs and seek other new opportunities - which have rather more far-reaching consequences than taking in the moggie. Also starring David Warshofsky and Joe Putterlik.
