Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Samuel Goldwyn Films has just unveiled a new, stylish trailer for their upcoming sci-fi horror-thriller Ascendant, which you can view for yourself at the top of the article!

Below is the official synopsis:

A young woman wakes, trapped, kidnapped in an elevator of a super high­ rise building at the mercy of her tormentors. This stylistic thriller, set in Shanghai, explores a young woman’s instinct to survive in a situation out of her control. Trapped, without any form of escape, and cocooned in the belly of the beast, Aria is forced to adapt her thinking, her beliefs and her endurance. This is the first of the journeys that assault her mind and her senses, pinning her down in anguish only to emerge connected to abilities that define who she truly is.

Ascendant – directed by Antaine Furlong and starring Charlotte Best, Jonny Pasvolsky, Alex Menglet, Susan Prior, Lily Stewart, Justin Cotta, Tahlia Sturzaker, and Karelina Clarke – will rise to theaters April 8th!
