HE OCCUPANT. Premiering at SXSW London today, the film releases in U.S. and Canadian theaters this summer from DECAL.
Refusing to accept her sister’s terminal diagnosis, geologist Abby (Ella Balinska, CHARLIE’S ANGELS) takes a job in the remote Georgian taiga to help pay for a new experimental treatment that might save her beloved sibling. Stuck in the wilderness after a crash, Abby must face the harsh elements to make her way back to her sister guided by the soothing voice of John (Rob Delaney, DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE), an American pilot whose plane was also brought down. Guiding her through the harsh conditions, John seems to be a beacon of hope. Until he isn’t.
