2024 Berlin Film Festival Silver Bear Winner - Sebastian Stan (Best Leading Performance)
Aspiring actor Edward (Sebastian Stan) does a radical medical procedure to drastically transform his appearance. But his new dream face quickly turns into a nightmare, as he loses out on the role he was born to play and becomes obsessed with reclaiming what was lost.
"With strangely thoughtful panache and a helping of absurdity, Schimberg makes us rethink how we look at people and ourselves alike – and who’s to blame when we don’t like the view." - USA today
"Sebastian Stan is sorrowfully mesmerizing while Adam Pearson is a charismatic delight. A Different Man scratches, peels, and rips its way into solidifying itself as one of the year’s best films." - Bounding into Comics
