IFC Midnight has released a poster and trailer for the upcoming thriller The Other Lamb. The film marks the English language debut for director Małgorzata Szumowska and stars Raffey Cassidy as Selah, a teenage girl who begins to question the teachings of Shepherd (Michiel Huisman), a messiah-like figure who leads the cult she was born into; take a look here…
For her entire life, the cult she was born into has been all that teenage Selah (Raffey Cassidy) has known. Along with a band of similarly cloistered young women she lives seemingly unstuck in time, cut off from modern society in a remote forest commune presided over by a man called Shepherd (Michiel Huisman), a controlling, messiah-like figure with a frightening dark side. But when her insular world is rocked by a series of nightmarish visions and disturbing revelations, Selah begins to question everything about her existence—including her allegiance to the increasingly dangerous Shepherd. Awash in images of primal, dreamlike dread, this provocative fable is a haunting vision of adolescent awakening and revolt.
The Other Lamb is set for a limited theatrical and VOD release on April 3rd. Also featuring in the cast are Denise Gough, Kelly Campbell, Eve Connolly and Isabelle Connolly.
