    George (Tom McCamus) claims he is aware of every possibility, every himself, in Robert Lepage's Possible Worlds, and he's going to spend all of them pursuing and loving Tilda Swinton's infinite selves. It's an epic love story, albeit an often off-putting one (he is single-minded in a way she cannot be). But if this is all true, what about the reality in which policemen are trying to solve George's murder and the theft of his brain? Are we seeing things out of sequence? As we head for a final truth, we also head for tragedy. A more introspective interdimensional story than most, Possible Worlds examines what is essential to a person, what makes them themselves, whatever quantum state they might find themselves in. Can we reduce ourselves to Slab and Rock (and Hilarious) and that's all? Partly shot in the Magdalen Islands, a rare spot for filming, the movie uses the ocean as a leitmotif for loss, dreaming, and the vastness of the multiverse. 8 months 2 weeks ago
