The first movie from musician Boots Riley, Sorry To Bother You gained a lot of hype after its debut at Sundance, where it completely beguiled and bewildered its audience.

Set in an alternate version of present-day Oakland, it stars Lakeith Stanfield as a telemarketer who adopts a 'White Voice' in order to succeed in his job, and is propelled into a strange mirror universe.

The cast, which also includes David Cross, Tessa Thompson, Danny Glover, and Steve Buscemi, is great, the premise intriguing, and the early reviews strong. It looks completely surreal, but also relevant, relatable, and a lot of fun to boot.

Release Date: July 6
