MUBI has released a UK trailer for writer-director Rebecca Lenkiewicz’s drama Hot Milk.
Based on Deborah Levy’s bestselling novel of the same name, the film stars Emma Mackey (Sex Education) as a young woman who travels to the Spanish coast with her controlling, ailing mother, where she finds herself on a journey of self-discovery.
Joining Mackey in the cast are Vicky Krieps and Fiona Shaw. Check out the new trailer below…
Set in the scorching heat of a Spanish summer, Sofia (Emma Mackey) and her ailing mother, Rose (Fiona Shaw), travel to the seaside town of Almería to seek the help of Dr. Gómez (Vincent Perez), an enigmatic healer who may hold the key to Rose’s mysterious illness. As long-buried tensions simmer between them, Sofia finds herself drawn to the magnetic and free-spirited Ingrid (Vicky Krieps). But as the sun beats down, Sofia’s growing independence and search for freedom become too much for her controlling mother, forcing her to question the true nature of Rose’s illness. Secrets, lies, and revelations emerge, leading Sofia to doors that might be best left unopened.
Hot Milk arrives in US cinemas on June 27th, and in UK cinemas on July 4th.
