Evan needs to get away for awhile after his mother dies. With no set schedule or destination plan in place, he ends up on the coast of Italy, where he meets and falls in love with a beautiful woman named Louise. Their blossoming romance seems like a fairy tale, but the dark secret Louise harbors could turn their relationship into a living nightmare that's hinted at in the first trailer for Spring.
Spring makes its world premiere at TIFF tonight. We have the film's official synopsis and cast information below (courtesy of TIFF):
"When his ailing mother dies, Evan (Lou Taylor Pucci, of the recent Evil Dead) realizes his life isn't going anywhere. Grabbing his last paycheque, he decides to go on the European graduation trip that he never got a chance to take. Picking a destination at random, he arrives in Italy, where he backpacks and parties with other tourists. But everything changes for Evan when he arrives in an idyllic southern town and meets the enchanting Louise (German actress Nadia Hilker). A tender romance begins to bloom between the two — but Louise harbours a dark, primordial secret that could destroy the happiness they're just beginning to build."
Directed by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead (the team behind 2012's Resolution) off a script by Benson, Spring stars Lou Taylor Pucci, Nadia Hilker, Francesco Carnelutti, Nick Nevern, Jeremy Gardner, Vinny Curran, Shane Brady, and Chris "Cage" Palko. We'll keep Daily Dead readers updated on Spring after it makes its world debut at TIFF.
