The long awaited drama comes to UK/ROI cinemas in October.
UK/ROI audiences have had quite the wait for Columbus, the debut feature of video essayist Kogonada, which premiered at Sundance back in January 2017. The wait is over, with Kogonada's film opening in UK/ROI cinemas October 5th.
Columbus stars John Cho as a man stuck in Columbus, Indiana while attending to his dying father. There he meets a local young woman (Haley Lu Richardson) in a similar situation, and the two form a platonic bond. Parker Posey, Rory Culkin and Michelle Forbes also star.
You can check out the new UK trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
Set in Columbus, a small city in Indiana famed worldwide for its striking modernist architecture and public art, this off-kilter love story is about the meeting of minds between Jin (John Cho) and Casey (Haley Lu Richardson).
Jin, a visitor from the other side of the world, is stuck in Columbus, where he attends to his sick father. Casey, an aspiring architecture student, has chosen to remain in Columbus to care for her mother - a recovering addict.
These two lost and troubled souls find each other through their exploration of the town, its buildings and their conflicted emotions on family and the ties that bind them.
