The Man Who Fell to Earth

The Man Who Fell to Earth

Newly restored in 4K, STUDIOCANAL's The Man Who Fell to Earth will return to cinemas across the UK and Ireland for a 40th anniversary reissue on 9 September. Directed by and featuring a perfectly cast as the otherworldly outsider of the film's title, The Man Who Fell to Earth is a bold take on the science fiction genre and a striking addition to Bowie's canon of oddball creations.

Synopsis</h2>

Travelling from his home planet that is gripped by a catastrophic drought, a humanoid alien named Thomas Jerome Newton comes to Earth on a mission to take water home. Using the advanced technology at his disposal to patent several inventions on Earth, Newton acquires incredible wealth as the head of a technology-based conglomerate that he intends to use to finance the construction of a space vehicle to ship water back to his planet. But Newton soon finds his true identity at risk due to the actions of an unscrupulous business colleague.
