Can technology predict real love? That’s the question that Greek filmmaker Christos Nikou tries to answer in upcoming Apple TV+ original movie Fingernails, a drama that feels take right out of Black Mirror. The movie is set to debut next month at Toronto International Film Festival before its official release at the streaming platform on November third. Boasting an all-star trio in Jessie Buckley (I’m Thinking of Ending Things), Jeremy Allen White (The Bear), Riz Ahmed (Sound of Metal), the first trailer for the film has now been released.
“Anna and Ryan have found true love. It’s been proven by a controversial new technology,” the official synopsis reads. “There’s just one problem: Anna still isn’t sure. Then she takes a position at a love testing institute, and meets Amir.”
Fingernails stars Jessie Buckley, Jeremy Allen White, Riz Ahmed, Luke Wilson, and Annie Murphy, and is set in an alternative reality where technology has evolved far enough to help people find the love of their life, someone that really suits them according to different tests and data. In that context, Anna and Ryan were a happy couple until technology proves they’re not the best choice for each other, which makes her start to believe she may not be in love after all.
