Sanzaru is set to premiere at the forthcoming Slamdance Film Festival and Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive trailer debut.
From director Xia Magnus, the film is described as a Gothic tale and journey to the heart of a haunted house – a house haunted, as much by death, as by secrets.
In Sanzaru, “Evelyn (Aina Dumlao), a young Filipina nurse, is living on an isolated estate while taking care of Dena, the aging matriarch of a Texas family. As Dena slips deeper into dementia, Evelyn begins to sense something ominous lurking behind the walls. Is the house a conduit for supernatural forces? Or is she just hearing things? As Evelyn’s paranoia pushes her to uncover her employer’s awful past, she may not be prepared for the havoc her curiosity will unlock.”
Those attending the festival can catch it on Sun, Jan 26th, 7:45 PM @ Ballroom and Wed, Jan 29th, 8:30 PM @ Gallery.
Programmer Traven Rice writes that, “Sanzaru is a captivating ghost story that melds the dark side of contemporary Americana together with a slice of Filipino heritage, creating a beautiful culture clash and an epic ancestral battle for the ages.”
