Author Jean Hegland's 1996 novel INTO THE FOREST, described as an "apocalyptic coming-of-age story", has received a cinematic adaptation from writer/director Patricia Rozema, and a trailer has arrived online to give us an idea of what Rozema has done with the material. Judging by the 90 seconds on display in the video below, Rozema appears to have delivered a fascinating film that features some gorgeous cinematography.
Starring Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood, INTO THE FOREST tells the story of
two sisters who struggle to survive in a remote country house after a continent-wide power outage.
Max Minghella, Callum Keith Rennie, Michael Eklund, and Wendy Crewson are also in the cast.
INTO THE FOREST will premiere exclusively on DirecTV on June 23rd, with a theatrical release to follow on July 29th.
