A Film by Mike Cahill

Ian Gray is a PhD researcher studying the evolution of the human eye in New York with Kenny, his research partner, and Karen, a first-year lab assistant. Ian feels a particular hostility toward superstition, religion and intelligent design, and wants to discredit them by completing the steps of eye evolution. At a Halloween party, he crosses paths with Sofi, a young woman wearing a black mask through which only multicolored eyes are visible. Mike Cahill directs the film, in which Michael Pitt plays Ian and Brit Marling plays Karen.

Trivia about I Origins

Cahill produced the film independently, although Fox Searchlight held the rights to the sequels and prequels of the screenplay for I. After the film's premiere at Sundance in 2014, the distributor ended up buying the movie.

The film won the Alfred P. Sloan Prize at the Sundance Film Festival, which honors titles that explore science and technology. It was Cahill's second award, after Another Earth in 2011.

The soundtrack was released by Milan Records on July 15, 2014.

The film received the Best Film award at the Sitges Film Festival on October 11, 2014.

Jordan Zakarin of TheWrap said the film's message points to the renewed culture war in the United States over issues such as science education and contraception.

To play Salomina, an Indian girl, casting director Dilip Shankar auditioned more than 1,400 candidates before selecting Kashish, who made her film debut in the movie.

Steven Yeun explained that most of his scenes allowed for improvisation, although they were based on dialogue written and rehearsed with Mike Cahill.

In 2014, Mike Cahill said he was developing a sequel set about 20 years later, focusing on the consequences of Ian Gray's discoveries.

Quotes by I Origins

Every living person on this planet has their own unique pair of eyes. Each their own universe.
Turning over a rock and finding nothing is progress.
I want you to burn me.
When I was a child, I realised that the camera was designed exactly like the human eye, taking in light through a lens, forming it into images. I began taking as many pictures of eyes as I possibly could.
To me, the best thing about living like a lab rat is that sometimes, really rare times, you actually discover something.
We're already married in the spiritual world.
