First images of Juan Solanas' spill

Juan Solanas jumped in my radar a few years with its dazzling short film the man without a head, a Visual effort Jones-style built around romantic desires a man literally without a head. With this short film Solanas himself announced as something unique, a filmmaker who merges concept high science fiction with deeply human stories.

And then, for his first feature film he has something completely different.

But now he is back where it belongs with Upside Down, a high concept science fiction novel starring Jim Sturgess and Kirsten Dunst.

Look to the sky and rubbing their eyes because you don't believe what you see: towns, forests and oceans with their own reverse gravity, only addictive away, yet completely inaccessible. Take a leap in this alternate reality, two worlds - above a below? face to another, and you'll land in the extraordinary upside down, new ground?breaking Juan Solanas, Director of the innovative Cannes film world and Cesar?prized short film the Man Without A head and heartbreaking Cannes 2005 film Nordeste.

Adam is a seemingly ordinary guys in a very extraordinary universe. He lived humbly to try to meet the ends, but the romantic on the memory of a young girl is maintained in another world, a rich world reversed with its own gravity, directly above, once mind holds but beyond... join a girl named Eve. Banter child becomes an impossible love. But when he catches a glimpse of the grown?up ensures TV, nothing will get to obtain the back... Not even the right or the science!

Yes, it is essentially a Romeo and Juliet story with separated lovers separated by entirely different worlds, one which hovers reversed over the other. This is a highly complex production - that a sum exorbitant funding agencies and forty nine different production list functionality involved on the IMDB - with the production designer and artistic director with credits on guards, Minority Report, Fight Club, Dark City, and the matrix. Raw images are coming online and you can find them in the gallery below.
