What Cloud Atlas Is About

Lana and Lilly Wachowski and Tom Tykwer's 2012 film tells six stories set in different times together, from the nineteenth century to a distant future. The same actors appear in different roles in each part. The film builds the connection through an idea of souls passing on; the narrative crosses the six lines through editing and repeats a theme of freedom and submission. It is adapted from a novel. The makeup used to change the actors' race was heavily criticised. It runs long. Who it's for: those who like formally ambitious, layered films. Who it's not for: viewers troubled by the practice of changing an actor's race through makeup.
