It has been eight years since Tarsem Singh's The Cell was released. At the time Premiere wrote: "He infuses his directorial debut with insinuating, operatic, disturbing dream worlds, and enough graphic violence to flirt with an NC-17 rating." Singh moved the set to Namibia to shoot Jennifer Lopez in the southwest African desert dunes, featured outlandish costumes by Japanese designer Eiko Ishioka and hired a crew from all around the globe. Now, he is back with a film that bears all the hallmarks of his unique and richly-saturated style: fantastic landscapes with sweeping vistas and surreal juxtapositions, bizarre and arresting costumes and breathtaking visual stunts. But The Fall — about a suicidal paraplegic who solicits help from a young girl — is a deeply personal project that took him years to scout, cast, film and release.
