Who’s in Landscape With Invisible Hand?
Landscape With Invisible Hand is written and directed by Cory Finley. The film stars Asante Blackk as Adam Campbell, Kylie Rogers as Chloe Marsh, Tiffany Haddish as Beth Campbell, Josh Hamilton as Mr. Marsh, Michael Gandolfini as Hunter Marsh, William Jackson Harper as Mr. Campbell, and more.
“Years into a benevolent alien occupation of Earth, the human race is still adjusting to the new world order and its quirky coffee table-sized overlords called the Vuvv,” reads the synopsis. “Their flashy advanced technology initially held promise for global prosperity, but rendered most human jobs – and steady income – obsolete. When 17-year-old artist Adam Campbell (Blackk) and new girlfriend Chloe Marsh (Rogers) discover the Vuvv are particularly fascinated with human love and will pay for access to it, they decide to livestream their budding romance to make extra cash for themselves and their families. Life is good, for a while, until the flame of their teenage love fizzles out, and they’re forced to make very different, absurdly life-altering sacrifices for their families.”
The film is executive produced by Anderson, Haddish, Brad Pitt, Gabby Shepard, David Kern, and Megan Ellison, with Dede Garner and Jeremy Kleiner serving as producers. It also features music by Michael Abels.
