on

Coming soon from IFC Midnight, one seed can change everything in Kristina Buozyte and Bruno Samper‘s Vesper, and the official poster has dropped ahead of a teaser coming soon.

In Vesper, “After the collapse of Earth’s ecosystem, Vesper, a 13-year-old girl struggling to survive with her paralyzed Father, meets a mysterious woman with a secret that forces Vesper to use her wits, strength and bio-hacking abilities to fight for the possibility of a future.”

Here’s a longer plot synopsis with more information:

“After the collapse of Earth’s ecosystem, Vesper, a strong-willed 13-year-old girl, uses her survival skills to subsist in the decaying remnants of the collapsed world with her ailing father, Darius. When Vesper finds a mysterious woman, Camellia, alone and disoriented after a jet crash, she agrees to help her find her missing companion in exchange for being taken to the Citadel – the dark central hub where oligarchs use genetic technologies to rule the world. Vesper soon discovers her evil neighbor, Jonas, may be responsible for the tragedy of Camellia’s crash.

“Forced into a dangerous adventure culminating in a violent showdown, Vesper must rely on her wits and bio-hacking abilities to unlock the key to creating an alternate future.”

The cast includes Raffiella Chapman (Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, His Dark Materials, Infinite), Eddie Marsan (Sherlock Holmes, The Gentleman, Happy Go Lucky), and Rosy McEwen (Alienist), as well as Richard Brake (3 from Hell) and Melanie Gaydos.
