Last we saw innovative filmmaker Michel Gondry, he was making a misstep into the world of superhero blockbuster filmmaking with The Green Hornet.

After some relative silence, the man behind numerous amazing music videos, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Be Kind Rewind and The Science of Sleep is ready to return at Cannes this year with his newest film The We And The I.

The first trailer hit the web earlier today, and you can check it out below.

From first appearances, this seems to be Gondry’s most traditional film, the tale of a group of urban youths as they ride the bus, but with all things Gondry, it’s not always what it appears to be.

I didn’t even know that this movie was in production, and with the trailer in front of me, and knowing that there’s a good chance we could see a release this year? The We And The I has jumped up in my list of “must see” films.
