  • The film centers on a woman who wakes in remote wilderness with no memory and must rely on a stranger who may be hiding the truth.
  • Matt Smukler directs from Jordan Rawlins’ script and says he cast the duo for on-screen chemistry that blends attraction with mistrust.
  • Fortitude International is financing and will launch international sales at the Marché du Film in Cannes, with Verve Ventures, UTA and WME Independent co-repping North American rights.
  • Purple Pebble Pictures and Amazing Owl join Fratricidal Films, Chemically Altered and Rhodes Entertainment as producers, and the Cannes sales push helps pre-sell territorial rights that can underwrite the shoot.
