“Materialists” is a new romantic film from Oscar-nominated director Celine Song (Past Lives), offering a sharp and contemporary look at the choices between love, status, and self-belief.
Dakota Johnson plays a young and ambitious New York matchmaker whose daily job is to help people find the perfect partner. But when her former lover (Chris Evans) re-enters her life and a seemingly perfect new man (Pedro Pascal) appears at the same time, she must decide whom to trust with her heart.
While she helps others find their ideal partners, in her own love life she faces questions to which she has no clear answers. Is love a feeling or a calculated choice? And do we dare to follow our hearts when our carefully built lives are at stake?
