The Lobster

2015 Comedy/Drama

Colin Farrell stars as David, a man living in a dystopian future where single people are forced to find a mate or risk getting turned into an animal. When David is arrested and transferred to The Hotel, he is told he has 45 days to find a suitable mate, or he'll be transformed into the animal of his choice -- a lobster. Finding no mat, David becomes increasingly desperate to escape and flees to The Woods. There, he meets a Loner (Weisz) with whom he falls in love, a romance that is entirely against the rules.
