“We are proud to support Eliot’s extraordinary work. The darkness outside us it’s exactly the kind of story we want to support at PAGEBOY: it’s subversive and deeply human at its core. It’s a complex love story, a creative thriller, and a space epic with twists at every corner. We can’t wait to take the next steps to bring it to the big screen.”
