Ahead of its Fantastic Fest screening this weekend, IFC Midnight announced today it is acquiring U.S. distribution rights to Emma Tammi’s narrative feature film The Wind (our review) produced by Soapbox Films and Divide/Conquer. The film made its World Premiere at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival to an enthusiastic Midnight Madness crowd.
Hailed by critics as a femme-centric western and supernatural horror, the film stars Caitlin Gerard, Julia Goldani Telles, Ashley Zukerman, Dylan McTee, and Miles Anderson.
The Wind not only features an array of talented female creatives at the helm and in front of the camera, it also showcases the work from production designers Hillary and Courtney Andujar, set decorator Elsbeth Mumm, along with film editor Alexandra Amick.
“When a woman moves to the American frontier to settle it with her husband, an evil presence soon makes itself known and infects her with paranoia.”
A release is planned for 2019.
