Shane Carruth won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival with his 2004 low-budget science fiction film “Primer.” The director’s second film “Upstream Color” is about a couple entangled in the life cycle of an ageless organism. Intermingling romanticism, drama, and suspense, the film draws attention to the degeneration of present-day relationships.
