Following its well-received world premiere in the Midnight Madness program at the Toronto International Film Festival last year, Emma Tammi’s The Wind was acquired by IFC Midnight for US distribution, and now the official trailer for the supernatural western has been unveiled ahead of its theatrical and VOD release on April 5th.
Directed by Emma Tammi from a screenplay by Teresa Sutherland, The Wind stars Caitlin Gerard, Julia Goldani Telles, Miles Anderson, and Dylan McTee.
In addition to the trailer, we also have details on special screenings of The Wind taking place in New York and Los Angeles ahead of its April 5th theatrical and VOD release.
Synopsis: "THE WIND explores an unseen evil as it haunts the homestead in this chilling, folkloric tale of madness, paranoia, and otherworldly terror. Lizzy (Caitlin Gerard) is a tough, resourceful frontierswoman settling a remote stretch of land on the 19th-century American frontier. Isolated from civilization in a desolate wilderness where the wind never stops howling, she begins to sense a sinister presence that seems to be borne of the land itself, an overwhelming dread that her husband (Ashley Zukerman) dismisses as superstition. When a newlywed couple arrives on a nearby homestead, their presence amplifies Lizzy’s fears, setting into motion a shocking chain of events. Masterfully blending haunting visuals with pulse-pounding sound design, director Emma Tammi evokes a godforsaken world in which the forces of nature come alive with quivering menace."
