IFC Midnight released the official trailer for writer/director Wyatt Rockefeller’s sci-fi thriller Settlers starring Sofia Boutella, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Brooklynn Prince, Nell Tiger Free, and Jonny Lee Miller. The film opens in theaters and on demand on Friday, July 23.
On a remote homestead amongst the Martian frontier, a refugee family from Earth clings to hope for a better life. But when strangers appear in the surrounding hills and attempt to run them off, nine-year-old Remmy (Brooklynn Prince, The Florida Project) is faced with the desperate reality her mother (Sofia Boutella, The Mummy) and father (Jonny Lee Miller, Trainspotting) have tried so hard to keep from her.
An eye-catching sci-fi thriller with elements of the classic western, Settlers, London-based filmmaker Wyatt Rockefeller’s feature film debut, was filmed on location in the isolated desert area of Vioolsdift, situated in the Northern Cape in South Africa.
