ARRIVAL signals cinema's unique ability to bend time, space and the mind. Denis Villeneuve's cerebral celebration of communication - fueled by Eric Heisserer's monumental script - is grounded in unstoppable emotion. As the fearless few who step forward for first contact, Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker prove the imperative for finding a means to connect - with awe-inspiring aliens, nations in our global community and the knowledge that even the inevitable loss that lies ahead is worth living.
