I tweeted about this earlier this morning.  Here’s a little more information. It’s good to see this film gaining more financial support.

From Arte France:

“The selection committee of ARTE France Cinema, held November 27, 2015, decided to support three new projects: “High Life” by Claire Denis, “A Gentle Creature” by Sergei Loznitsa”

The press release:

“HIGH LIFE (TITRE PROVISOIRE) DE CLAIRE DENIS ALCATRAZ FILMS (FRANCE), PANDORA FILM (ALLEMAGNE), APOCALYPSE FILM (GRANDE-BRETAGNE) Premier long métrage en anglais de Claire Denis, High Life est un projet ambitieux de science-fiction relatant l’odyssée d’un équipage au-delà de notre système solaire. Robert Pattinson, Patricia Arquette et Mia Goth (révélée dans Nymphomaniac Volume II de Lars von Trier) feront partie de l’expédition. Le scénario est cosigné par Claire Denis et par son scénariste habituel Jean-Paul Fargeau, avec la collaboration du couple de romanciers anglais Zadie Smith et Nick Laird. Le projet bénéficie également de la participation de l’astrophysicien Aurélien Barrau, et de l’artiste contemporain danois Olafur Eliasson. Suart Staples et The Tindersticks composeront la musique originale. “

Google translate:

That’s interesting about The Tindersticks.  If you want to hear their sound visit their website here or their official Facebook.

High Life is a coproduction Alcazar Films (France), Pandora Film (Germany) and Apocalypse Films (UK).
