This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
The entire premise of Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival, inspired by Ted Chiang’s novella Story of Your Life is centered around the life of a woman played by Amy Adams, some seven-limbed aliens and her daughter, as well as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis taken a little too literally to form the basis for its sci-fi element. And I (unsurprisingly) loved it?
The language that the heptapods speak is cyclical, infinite, non-linear. Perhaps a visual representation of time itself.
“Is this how they think?”…
