In ‘Mi Amor,’ Pom Klementieff Is a DJ Touring the Canary Islands Until Her Friend Vanishes (Exclusive Rotterdam Trailer)

Pom Klementieff (Guardians of the Galaxy, Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning parts one and two) is Romy, a French DJ touring the sun-bleached and club-lit Canary Islands – until her friend vanishes.

Paradise turns sinister and scary in Mi Amorthe new feature film from actor-director Guillaume Nicloux’s (The Kidnapping of Michel Houellebecq, Valley of Love), a disappearance thriller with a pulsing techno score courtesy of Irène Drésel and Sizo Del Givry. The movie just celebrated its world premiere in the Limelight section of the 55th edition of the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR) on Sunday.

“Met with evasion from locals and the authorities, Romy’s search leads her to Vincent, a magnetic stranger (Benoît Magimel), and the sinister proprietors of an exotic animal sanctuary,” a synopsis for Mi Amor tells us. “With the help of Vincent, the club owner with a troubled past, Romy will stop at nothing to find her.” Freya Mavor (Marie Antoinette), Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey (The Vault), Anaël Snoek (The Serpent Queen), and Elina Löwensohn also feature in the movie.

Nicloux wrote the screenplay with Nathalie Leuthreau. The producers of Mi Amor are François Kraus and Denis Pineau-Valencienne, with Les Films du Kiosque serving as the production company. Le Pacte is handling sales.

Mi Amor brings the party and the suspense to Rotterdam in more than one sense. After all, following a screening of the movie on Friday, Feb. 6, Drésel and Del Givry will put on a special performance for festival goers.

THR can now premiere a trailer for Mi Amor. It shows Klementieff in DJ, search, and drama mode, and it gives you a first cinematic look at the Canary Islands.

You decide whether you put your hands up – driven by the Canary Islands beats – or in front of your mouth – in shock and worry. Either way, watch the Mi Amor trailer below.
