Iuli Gerbase‘s eerily prescient Sundance Sci-Fi film THE PINK CLOUD opens in select theaters on January 14, 2022. The film will then be made available on Digital and Video on Demand on March 1, 2022. Make sure you check out the trailer below!

Life changes on a dime when a toxic and mysterious pink cloud appears across the globe, forcing the world indoors immediately and indefinitely. In Brazil, Giovana (Renata de Lélis) finds herself stuck in her apartment with a man she just met (Eduardo Mendonça). But their carefree one-night stand grows into a years-long relationship complicated by a child and increasingly divergent worldviews as they try to imagine a future from the depths of a potentially never-ending lockdown.

Written in 2017 and shot in 2019, this stunning, slow-burn sci-fi debut from writer/director luli Gerbase is both an eerily prescient reflection of our reality and a cathartic exploration of hope and despair, love and fear, and the boundlessness and limits of our ability as humans to adapt.

THE PINK CLOUD stars Renata de Lélis (Bad Honey, O Homem Que Copiava), Eduardo Mendonça (“Liberto”, “Necrópolis”), Kaya Rodrigues (Hard Paint, Alce & Alice), Girley Brasil Paes, Helena Becker (“Banalidade do Mal”, Dia das Nações) and Lívia Perrone Pires (Só Isso, “Desconectados”).

The film is written and directed by Iuli Gerbase (The Stone). To learn more about Gerbase’s feature film directorial debut, check out our review from Sundance!
