Robert Pattinson is trapped aboard a drifting spaceship in the first international trailer for the hypnotic space-mission thriller "High Life."

Here, the former "Twilight" heartthrob star plays a death-row inmate who has volunteered to participate in a dangerous space expedition, only to later find himself being part of a sadistic social experiment that goes horribly wrong.

The film, which marks the English-language debut of acclaimed 72-year-old French filmmaker Claire Denis (Let the Sunshine In, White Material, Beau travail), also stars Juliette Binoche, Andre Benjamin, and Mia Goth.

After premiering last month at the Toronto International Film Festival, "High Life" received mostly positive reviews from critics. The film is going to be released internationally next month, before arriving in the States. Watch the trailer, above.

synopsis:
Monte is one of several death row inmates given the opportunity to forgo their sentence in exchange for manning a suicide space mission to harvest energy from near a black hole. The ship's doctor is also conducting an experiment of her own, obsessively testing human's ability to reproduce in space. The ragtag crew's close quarters and grim fate breed dissent and ultimately brutal violence.
