All of You at TIFF 2024: A Love Story with a Twist of Sci-Fi
If you’re heading to TIFF 2024, there’s one film you absolutely need to have on your radar—All of You. Directed by William Bridges and co-written with Brett Goldstein, this near-future romance is not your typical “boy-meets-girl” story. It’s more like “boy-loves-girl-but-waits-too-long-and-now-technology-might-screw-things-up.” Yeah, it’s that kind of wild.
So, What’s the Deal?
Meet Simon (Brett Goldstein) and Laura (Imogen Poots)—best friends who’ve been through it all, except for, you know, admitting their feelings for each other. Enter the curveball: a test that guarantees to match you with your one true soulmate. Laura takes the plunge, and BAM—she’s matched with someone new, leaving Simon in the emotional dust.
As Laura’s new relationship speeds along (thanks, soulmate science!), Simon starts to realize that his feelings for her go way beyond friendship. But is it too late? Is love something you can fight for, or is it out of our hands when tech gets involved? That’s the journey this film takes you on.
Why You’ll Be Obsessed
- Brett Goldstein, People!: You know him as Roy Kent from Ted Lasso, but he’s not just flexing his acting chops here—he co-wrote the film. Expect the same humor, depth, and emotional gut punches you’ve loved from his past work.
- Futuristic, Yet Totally Relatable: Sure, the film has a sci-fi twist, but at its core, it’s a story we’ve all lived through—falling for someone at the wrong time, or maybe never telling them at all. You’ll feel it.
- Time Hops, But Make It Art: The movie’s structure is next-level. It skips through different moments in Simon and Laura’s lives, showing how their relationship evolves (or doesn’t). Think Black Mirror meets your favorite love story, with moments that will have you wondering if you’re seeing your own love life reflected on screen.
The Team Behind the Magic
- William Bridges: If you’ve seen the Black Mirror episode “USS Callister,” you already know this guy can do emotionally complex with a sci-fi edge. All of You is his feature directorial debut, and it’s bound to leave you in your feelings.
- Imogen Poots: She’s no stranger to playing characters with depth, and her portrayal of Laura is as layered as it gets. Vulnerable, funny, heartbreaking—she’s a perfect match (pun intended) for Goldstein.
Why You Need to See It at TIFF
If you’re a fan of love stories that mess with your head and heart, this is going to be your new favorite movie. All of You asks the big questions about love and destiny, and does it in a way that feels real, even if it’s set in the future. It’s one of those films that leaves you thinking, “What if?” long after it’s over.
And let’s be real: Goldstein and Poots as best friends secretly in love? Yeah, we’re all in for that emotional chaos.
