The Congress

Based On the book by Stanisław Lem

The Congress (French: Le Congrès, Hebrew: כנס העתידנים) is a 2013 English-language live-action/animated science-fiction drama film written and directed by Ari Folman, loosely based on Stanisław Lem's 1971 Polish science-fiction novel The Futurological Congress. It stars Robin Wright as a fictionalized version of herself who agrees to have a film studio use a digital clone of her in any film they want. The film premiered at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival on 15 May 2013. Independent film distributor Drafthouse Films announced, along with Films We Like In Toronto, their co-acquisition of the North American rights to the film and a US theatrical and VOD/digital release planned for 2014.
