A mainstay of the London art scene since his starry breakout in the creative explosion of the 1960’s, Julian Sklar (Ian McKellen) has drifted into a cluttered, self-imposed seclusion. His two estranged children (James Corden, Jessica Gunning) enlist Lori (Michaela Coel), a young painter and sometime-forger, to pose as a prospective assistant and gain access to a fabled series of unfinished canvases Julian has buried deep in his home studio, in a deceptive bid to secure an inheritance for themselves.

"In a career filled with unexpected delights, The Christophers is perhaps the most delightful." - Oscar Goff, Boston Hassle

"Soderbergh delivers his best film since "Traffic." Casting Coel and McKellen was inspired, two actors of different generations and backgrounds who are simply dazzling paired together." - Laura Clifford, Reeling Reviews

"Soderbergh’s latest is a stripped-down winner, with Michaela Coel and Ian McKellen as dueling artists." - Liam Lacey, Original Cin
