Set twelve years before his epic His Dark Materials trilogy, this gripping adaptation revisits Phillip Pullman’s fantastical world in which waters are rising and storms are brewing.

Two young people and their dæmons, with everything at stake, find themselves at the center of a terrifying manhunt. In their care is a tiny child called Lyra Belacqua, and in that child lies the fate of the future. And as the waters rise around them, powerful adversaries conspire for mastery of Dust: salvation to some, the source of infinite corruption to others.

“Is the film a shivery gothic? Sci-fi? A fairytale? A little of each and entirely itself, a brief masterpiece of parents and childhood, past and future.” Danny Leigh, Financial Times.

“Jim Broadbent is priceless in this canny, tender British comedy, based on a real-life art heist that bamboozled the police, as well as the scriptwriters of Bond adventure Dr. No.” Charlotte O'Sullivan, London Evening Standard.

“What passes between Jessica (Tilda Swinton) and Hernán (Elkin Díaz), and the sequence of images that follows, represent a quietly mind-blowing moment of cinema, something as wild and argument-provoking now as the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey was in 1968. You have to see it to believe it.” A. O. Scott, New York Times.

“Designed and deserving to be seen big and loud, Memoria is a hypnotic, unquantifiable, occasionally impenetrable  sonic odyssey from a unique cinematic voice.” Jake Cunningham, Empire Magazine.
