MUMBAI: The 55th BFI London Film Festival will open with the European premiere of Fernando Meirelles‘ film 360 on 12 October.

The film is a modern and stylish kaleidoscope of interconnected love and relationships linking characters from different cities and countries in a vivid, suspenseful and deeply moving tale of romantic life in the 21st century.

From a simple decision made by one man – to remain faithful to his wife – springs a series of consequences. From uplifting, beautiful and romantic moments through to desperate, confused and conflicted interludes, each protagonist in 360 has their own vivid, entertaining, funny, tragic narrative as their stories entwine across the globe, states an official press release of the festival.

Starting in Vienna, the film beautifully weaves through Paris, London, Bratislava, Rio, Denver and Phoenix into a single, mesmerizing narrative.

Incidentally, the directors last offering The Constant Gardener opened the BFI London Film Festival in 2005.
The festival will run from 12 to 27 October.
