HighLife-LeFilm has added the French press kit to their website which contains an interview with Rob. Below is the very rough Google translation
Tell us the story of High Life.
This is the story of a group of prisoners sentenced to death. they have the opportunity to go on a space mission to explore a black hole, in order to shorten their sentence. The mission ends up going wrong and
a tragedy ensues …What is your character’s place in the story?
I think all the characters are in the same boat except Dr. Dibs or Captain Chandra. We do not have roles predefined in the ship. We have more or less a hierarchy established but we are all prisoners sentenced to death:
prisoners on land and prisoners in the ship. That’s it, there is not really any specific role but a hierarchy and I guess Monte is higher in the hierarchy than other characters.ÂWhat did you like about the project?
I’ve always loved Claire’s movies and stories like that, I could not even imagine what the scenario would look like. The film is very elliptical and unusual, I really wanted to work with Claire, the script is crazy and very daring. It’s a science-fiction movie but I find that most of the themes in the story do not have relationship with conventional science fiction. It’s very daring and a little dangerous.
