The official trailer debuted for Jaco Bouwer’s eco-horror film Gaia which premiered at SXSW and is set to open in theaters on June 18th and on demand on June 25th.
The film directed by Jaco Bouwer (This Country is Lonely, “4 Mure”), stars Monique Rockman (Number 37, Tussen as en Hoop), Carel Nel (“Raised By Wolves“, The Last Days of American Crime), Anthony Oseyemi (The Red Sea Diving Resort, Hector and the Search for Happiness), and Alex Van Dyk (Griekwastad, The Harvesters).
In Gaia, an injured forest ranger on a routine mission is saved by two off-the-grid survivalists. What is initially a welcome rescue grows more suspicious as the son and his renegade father reveal a cultish devotion to the forest. When their cabin is attacked by a strange being it’s clear there is a far greater threat in this unrelenting wilderness.
