Have you ever dreamt of a better version of yourself? You.

Only better in every way. Seriously. You’ve got to try this new product. It’s called The Substance. IT CHANGED MY LIFE.

It generates another you. A new, younger, more beautiful, more perfect, you. And there’s only one rule: You share time. One week for you. One week for the new you. Seven days each. A perfect balance. Easy. Right?

If you respect the balance… what could possibly go wrong?

MUBI will be releasing The Substance in UK and Irish cinemas, that date still to be announced.
