From Film and Media Foundation (medienstiftung nrw Germany):
“Claire Denis turns the science fiction “High Life”. For the book, which she shared withZadie Smith, Nick Laird and Jean-Pol Fargeau wrote, they were advised by the CERN physicists. A group of criminals takes as astronauts on the mission to break into a black hole. Mia Goth, Patricia Arquette and Robert Pattinson are in NRW front of the camera. The internationally renowned artist Olafur Eliasson, of the approximately 40 works at the Langen Foundation are until the end of February to see, accepts the Art Design.

1.2 million euros? Â That’s great because originally Film and Mediation Foundation had given them 50,000 euros.
According to Focus on Film: “High Life” received the most amount of funding:
“The Film and Media Foundation NRW has awarded to 44 projects currently funding of more than ten million euros. Here also two million subsidies were decided: as gets Claire Denis’ sci-fi drama “High Life” (producer:Pandora Film) about a group of criminals who assumes a mission when astronauts penetrate into a black hole, the highest currently assigned funding of 1 , 2 million euros.”
