The 9th Life of Louis Drax begins on Louis Drax’s (Longworth) 9th birthday, when he miraculously survives a near fatal fall. His doctor Allan Pascal (Dornan) finds himself tangled between his professional responsibility and his growing affections for the boy’s mother (Gadon), a fragile young beauty. When Louis’ father (Paul) comes under suspicion, Pascal realizes other mysterious forces may be at work.

Presented by Miramax, the film is a Canadian/UK co-production produced by AntColony Films and Brightlight Pictures. It will be released later this year.
