The film is about Ramona (Danielle Deadwyler), a woman crippled by grief after she survived a car accident that led her husband’s life (Russell Hornsby). Ramona is seriously injured and has to take care of her 14-year-old son (Peyton Jackson) and the six-year-old (Estella Kahiha) in a rural farmhouse. One day, from nowhere a woman appears out of nowhere who is dressed in black from head to toe. The woman (Okwui Okpokwasili) wander closer to the house and it quickly becomes clear that she is not an ordinary woman and that her intentions are not good. Horror comes.
These are the Synopsis universal pictures published for the public, but at the time of the SET visit, they hesitated to tell us a lot of details. “I don’t want to tell you,” “Deadwyler, Deadwyler, who also worked with Collet-Serra on Netflix ‘Thriller “Hand luggage”, “hand luggage”, “hand luggage” said in response to a rather fundamental question about her character during an interview. Deadwyler and everyone else we spoke that day were very hesitant to give away too much about the film. “Oh, it’s so cool. It’s cool. I can’t tell you anything,” said Okpokwasili when he asked a similar question.
Nevertheless, Okpokwasili was quite excited to present the titles “Frau” in the film. “What I can tell you about the woman is that she is a bit puzzling,” said Okopkwasili. The character, as can be seen in the trailer, is equipped in very black, which was a challenge in the shaky Georgia heat. Okopkasili didn’t seem to bother. “I like it, I like to sweat,” she said. “I was really happy. Everyone was concerned, but the woman clearly works in another plane.”
During our SET visit, the team spoiled us with a very early look at a film material from the woman that was actually on the farm. It was effectively creepy and although it lacked a lot of context, it was effective. The legendary producer Stephanie Allain (“Hustle & Flow”, “Dear White People”) has personally initiated us for the set. They filmed a large crash scene with Green Walls all around that day.
We were also shown in an attic that was built on stage and reflected that of the house on a plantation on which they actually made a large part of the film. The attic was filled with garbage and cobwebs that were designed with careful details. Nearby it was as impressive as it was creepy.
