Based on Michel Houellebecq’s controversial bestselling novel, ATOMISED tells the story of half brothers Michael (Christian Ulmen) and Bruno (Moritz Bleibtreu) – one is an introverted molecular biologist who is so wrapped up in his genetic research that he shies away from intimacy, while the other is a slave to his sexual fantasies.
Everything changes when both men, now thirty-something, find love in unexpected places. Questions of biological evolution, love and fate are raised in award-winning director Oskar Roehler’s stark, striking film.
