After it gathered well-deserved praise at Cannes and Sundance, A24 has just dropped the trailer for their latest science-fiction film, After Yang. 

Coming from visual artist and Columbus director Kogonada, After Yang is set in a near-future where androids are brought in as house helpers. The eponymous Yang (Justin H. Min, The Umbrella Academy) is one such android, brought in to look after Colin Farrell and Jodie Turner-Smith’s adopted daughter and to teach her about her Chinese heritage.

Sadly, when Yang malfunctions, Jake (Farrell) searches for a way to repair him. In the process, Jake discovers the life that has been passing in front of him, reconnecting with his wife Kyra (Turner-Smith, Nightflyers) and daughter Mika (Malea Emma Tjandrawidjaja) across a distance he didn’t know was there.

Haley Lu Richardson, Sarita Choudhury, and Clifton Collins Jr. also star. After Yang releases March 4th.
