IFC Midnight is proud to present SHE WILL, the psychological horror directed by Charlotte Colbert, making her directorial debut. Executive produced by horror legend Dario Argento (Suspiria), SHE WILL won the Golden Leopard for Best First Film at the Locarno Film Festival and screened at notable festivals around the world including the London Film Festival, Fantastic Fest, Sitges and Thessaloniki. IFC Midnight will open SHE WILL in select theaters and on demand on Friday, July 15, 2022, with Shudder launching the title on October 14, 2022.
SHE WILL is a gothic-tinged drama about a declining movie star, Veronica Ghent (Alice Krige) who after a difficult surgery, goes to a healing retreat in rural Scotland with her young nurse Desi (Kota Eberhardt). With her own identity in doubt, Veronica starts to confront past traumas endured on movie sets. The two women develop an unlikely bond as mysterious natural of the wilderness give Veronica the power to enact revenge.
An inventive and provocative directorial debut, with #MeToo resonance, SHE WILL is a timely feminist critique, identifying Charlotte Colbert as one of horror’s most exciting new filmmaking voices.
