The Double

92 minutes 2013 6.5

Simon is a shy man who lives an isolated life in an indifferent world. He is overlooked at work, despised by his mother and ignored by the woman he dreams of. He sees no light in the tunnel.

When James, a new colleague at work, shows up, the balance is disturbed. Physically, James Simon is double-headed, but otherwise his straightforward - he is confident, charismatic and popular with the ladies. To Simon's horror and horror, James slowly begins to take control of his life. The movie is fun, scary and dreamy.

The Double is Ayoade's second film. The first, Submarine, received a lot of praise from the critics. Featuring amazing actors like Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) and Mia Wasikowska (Alice In Wonderland).

The film is not playable outside of Norway
