The Bestowal is a 2019 independent American science fiction drama film written, produced and directed by Andrew de Burgh, in his feature debut.
Steven Karius is a selfish and suicidal businessman who, just moments before he is about to kill himself, is visited by an inter-dimensional incarnation of Death who appears in the form of a beautiful young woman.
Taking inspiration from 2001: A Space Odyssey, Interstellar as well as the scientific works of Stephen Hawking, de Burgh started writing the screenplay in the summer of 2017.
He spent time researching various scientific topics, including the interdimensional hypothesis, the chronology of the universe, astronomy, planetary science and the Big Bang.
It's a valuable message for those patient enough to receive it.”[7] Film Threat critic Alex Saveliev gave it a 3 out of 10, stating “Andrew de Burgh tackles existential, cosmic issues and mixes the theological, the religious and the scientific with such reckless abandon, his reach far exceeds his grasp.”[8]
