Short description

A troubled psychologist is sent to investigate the crew of an isolated research station orbiting a bizarre planet.

What's left behind the scenes

  • In the film, the original names of the characters were changed to sound more convenient for the English-speaking audience: Snout became Snow, Hari became Rey, Sartorius became a black woman named Gordon, and Gibaryan’s name sounds like Jibarian.
  • At the very beginning of filming, the film was conceived as a remake of Tarkovsky’s film of the same name.
  • According to George Clooney, Steven Soderbergh initially intended to cast another actor in the lead role. Clooney wrote him a letter requesting to be considered, deciding to appeal to the director in writing because he believed a written rejection would be less hurtful. Fortunately, the actor Soderbergh intended to cast turned down the role himself. That actor was Daniel Day-Lewis.
  • During the erotic scenes on set, only the actors involved – George Clooney and Natasha McElhone – and Steven Soderbergh with a handheld camera were present.
