Very black psychological sci-fi comedy-thriller about a young man who undergoes a spiritual awakening and finds himself existing outside of time (like Dr. Manhattan in Watchmen). When every woman he has sex with dies from “premature enlightenment,” he winds up hunted by a police detective with an increasingly tenuous grasp on reality. The investigation is monitored by shadowy agents of an “upstream” reality. Throw The Tenant, Donnie Darko, Man Bites Dog, I Heart Huckabees, Georgios "Yorgos" Lanthimos (The Lobster), and early Hal Hartley into Seth Brundle's telepod, sprinkle with some Cormac McCarthy, and you may get some idea.
