Following the death of her mother, Abby (Tuppence Middleton), a troubled young woman with a checkered past, returns to her hometown of Niagara Falls and the dilapidated motel her family used to run. While there, she finds herself drawn once again into a mystery that has haunted her since childhood: what happened to the young boy she saw being violently abducted in the woods twenty-five years ago? As Abby sets out to find out the truth, she must confront both a shocking, long-buried conspiracy that runs as deep as the falls themselves as well as her own inner demons.
A lot of history in that place…and I have a feeling this trailer is just scratching the surface. Abby (Tuppence Middleton) is surrounded by people doubting her accounts, which just so happens to be a cinematic anxiety trigger of mine. Shots feel almost voyeuristic. In the end I’m left with the feeling pulled over a cliff by dread. (In the best way).
What’s real? Who’s right?
