Short description

Caleb, a coder at the world's largest internet company, wins a competition to spend a week at a private mountain retreat belonging to Nathan, the reclusive CEO of the company. But when Caleb arrives at the remote location he finds that he will have to participate in a strange and fascinating experiment in which he must interact with the world's first true artificial intelligence, housed in the body of a beautiful robot girl.

What's left behind the scenes

Felicity Jones was considered for the role of Ava.
In one scene on Nathan's computer, computer code can be seen. This is a Python program that prints a sequence of characters. Running the provided code in Python 2.7 in the console will produce the following string: ISBN = 9780199226559. Assuming the ISBN is a unique book edition number (International Standard Book Number) and searching for the book using this number, one can discover that its theme corresponds perfectly to the film's theme: 'Embodiment and the Inner Life: Cognition and Consciousness in the Space of Possible Minds'.
Nathan's house features a painting by abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock, "No. 5".
A painting by abstract artist Jackson Pollock, "Number 5," hangs in Nathan's house.
In the scene where Caleb exits the bathroom, he thoroughly dries his face with a towel, but shortly after, it's visible that his left cheek is covered in shaving foam.
