In Meanwhile on Earth (Pendant ce temps sur terre) a strange sci-fi/maybe-horror drama a woman in her 20s begins hearing her brother who was lost in space years ago, launching her into a dangerous and morally dubious mission to bring him back. Meanwhile on Earth makes for a subversive extraterrestrial movie with an ambiguous ending, as voices from beyond also start speaking to Elsa (Megan Northam) and demand she perform a series of tasks to get Franck (Sbastien Pouderoux) back. Yet the French indie film, for all its unique aspects, oddly resonates with some mainstream Hollywood media.
