Director : Denis Villeneuve
Screenplay : Eric Heisserer
Based on : Story of Your Life by Ted Chiang
Camera : Bradford Young
Since Ted Chiang published his first story 26 years ago, he has earned a reputation for writing thoughtful and empathetic science fiction. This year, the 49-year-old has accomplished something rare: One of his stories is in two heralded annual anthologies, and Hollywood has come calling, too.
The new film 'Arrival', starring Amy Adams and opening this month is based on 'Story of Your Life'. Mr. Chiang’s 1998 story that won a Nebula Award for best novella. The film has received early critical acclaim for its blend of cerebral science fiction and emotional resonance, attributes it shares with the writer’s fiction.
When multiple mysterious spacecraft touch down across the globe, an elite team is put together to investigate, including linguist Louise Banks, mathematician Ian Donnelly and US Army Colonel Weber. Mankind teeters on the verge of global war as everyone scrambles for answers and to find them and will take a chance that could threaten their lives, and, quite possibly, humanity.
