Cloud Atlas

Cloud Atlas (2012) — watch online on iFILM. A sprawling sci-fi drama directed by Tom Tykwer and the Wachowskis, adapting David Mitchell's acclaimed novel. Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Hugo Weaving, Jim Broadbent, Ben Whishaw, and Susan Sarandon each play multiple roles across the film's six interlocking stories.

The timelines run from an 1849 sea voyage to a post-apocalyptic Hawaii in the year 2321. A composer in 1930s Edinburgh pours his best work into one unfinished symphony. A San Francisco journalist in 1973 chases a cover-up that could cost her life. A fabricant in 2144 Seoul starts to question the conditioning she was built to accept. Each act of courage or cruelty ripples forward across centuries.

Every lead actor wearing different faces in different eras is not a gimmick — it's the point. The $100 million co-production between the US and Germany's X Filme is among the most ambitious ensemble films of its decade. Stream Cloud Atlas in full online on iFILM.
