Mystery drama directed by Joshua Marston and starring Rachel Weisz and Michael Shannon. Tom (Shannon) considers moving to a new state when his wife Ramina (Azita Ghanizada) gets accepted into a graduate programme. When the couple and some friends attend a dinner party, one of Tom's co-workers brings along a date who seems to be a ghost from Tom's past. Introduced as Alice (Weisz), the woman acts as though she and Tom have never met before but Tom knows better. When she abruptly leaves, Tom is compelled to follow her and find out the truth. The two of them venture into the night as Alice tries to explain what motivates her to constantly reinvent her own identity and Tom tries to understand this while facing the possibility that her reappearance has dredged up old and forgotten feelings. Will Alice finally be able to settle or will Tom be drawn into the promise of escapism? The cast also features Danny Glover, Kathy Bates and Erin Darke.

A mysterious woman with a remarkable past revisits a former lover, complicating the settled life he has built for himself and his wife in Complete Unknown, an unsettling exploration of identity from acclaimed filmmaker Joshua Marston (Maria Full of Grace, The Forgiveness of Blood). As Tom (Michael Shannon) celebrates his birthday with a group of close friends in Brooklyn, he is startled to see a woman from his distant past at the party. Jenny — or Alice (Rachel Weisz), as she now calls herself — first denies even knowing Tom, but as the evening progresses, she reveals a shocking secret. After disappearing from Tom’s life 20 years earlier, she began to reinvent herself every few years, taking on a new name, a new career and a new life each time. After giving Tom a glimpse of what life could be like if he lets go of the safety and security he has so carefully created, Alice asks him to make a choice that will change everything.
