This March, IFC Films will release the star-studded psychological thriller Johna and the Hole, starring “Dexter” actor Michael C. Hall, Saint Maud‘s Jennifer Ehle, “American Horror Story” actress Taissa Farmiga, and young Captain Fantastic star Charlie Shotwell.
“In this enigmatic and unsettling meditation on adolescent angst, 13-year-old John (Charlie Shotwell) discovers an unfinished bunker while exploring the neighboring woods—a deep hole in the ground. Seemingly without provocation, he drugs his affluent parents (Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Ehle) and older sister (Taissa Farmiga), holding them captive within the bunker. As they anxiously wait for John to free them from the hole, the boy returns home, where he can finally enjoy and explore newfound independence. Exploring the difficult passage from childhood freedom to adult responsibility, John and the Hole is both a slow-burn psychological thriller and meditative coming-of-age fable, anchored by a chilling lead performance from Charlie Shotwell.”
Pascual Sisto makes his feature directorial debut with John and the Hole, arriving on Blu-ray and DVD on March 15, 2022. You can pre-order your copy now from IFC Films.
