Personal Shopper is a 2016 supernatural psychological thriller film written and directed by Olivier Assayas.

[2] The film stars Kristen Stewart as a young American woman in Paris who works as a personal shopper for a celebrity and tries to communicate with her deceased twin brother.

Maureen is waiting for her twin brother, Lewis, who recently died of a genetic heart condition, to fulfill their pact to send a signal from the afterlife.

She stays overnight at Lewis's house in hopes of receiving a sign and briefly encounters a spiritual presence.

The wife mentions the artist Hilma af Klint, whose paintings were inspired by messages from the spirit world.

Later, Maureen video chats with her boyfriend, Gary, a contractor in Muscat, Oman, who encourages her to visit him, which she turns down.

She falls asleep, is awoken by the same female specter, and tells Lara the next morning that there is no longer a supernatural presence in the house.

She attempts to investigate the texter's identity by inquiring at the front desk, but the room was paid for in cash and reserved under her name.

He leaves for work, and as Maureen sits in the garden alone, a ghostly figure appears in the kitchen holding a glass.

In May 2015, it was announced that Olivier Assayas would be directing the film from a screenplay he wrote, with Kristen Stewart starring.

[7] In October 2015, Sigrid Bouaziz, Lars Eidinger, Anders Danielsen Lie, and Nora von Waldstätten were cast in the film.

[10] Universal Pictures distributed the film in Scandinavia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, Poland, Turkey, Portugal, the Baltics, the CIS excluding Russia, India, Indonesia and Taiwan.

The site's critical consensus reads, "Personal Shopper attempts a tricky series of potentially jarring tonal shifts with varying results, bolstered by a performance from Kristen Stewart that's impossible to ignore.

[22] Stephanie Zacharek of Time gave a positive review, writing, "Personal Shopper is a strange and beautifully made film, and both star and director are clearly energized by their dual mission."
