Ex Machina

“There is nothing more human than the will to survive.”

Caleb (Domhnall Gleeson), a coder at the world's largest internet company, wins a contest and is flown to a private retreat in the mountains. Its owner is Nathan (Oscar Isaac), the company's reclusive CEO, who wants Caleb to test Ava (Alicia Vikander), a robot housed in a young woman's body. Alex Garland's first film as director puts three people in one house, and Caleb has no way to know who is testing whom.
