Billed as a “twisted horror,” the pic is set in 1910 Indiana and follows the patriarch of a rural mercantile family whose way of life is suddenly disrupted by a charismatic industrialist who has entered into a secret affair with his wife . When rising tensions mistakenly lead to the death of a customer, his wounded authority and masculinity leave him vulnerable to truly bizarre and horrific forces causing unimaginable chaos and terror.
Lemming Film is co-producing with principal photography set to take place in Belgium. Producers on the pic are Christian Hall for Two Independent Eyes, alongside Eric Cook for Anti-Worlds, as well as Reuben Walker and David Levine for Anonymous Content. “We are thrilled to announce our first feature with Peter Sarsgaard and Mackenzie Davis,” said Pulsar co-founders Gilles Sousa and Marie Garrett. “It’s also a great opportunity to partner up again with XYZ Films, UTA Independent Film Group, and CAA Media Finance on this first feature which, we’re sure, will fit the international audience. The script is totally unique and will take the audience to an unexpected place.
