From writer-director Carlo Mirabella-Davis comes the twisted film Swallow, which depicts a woman with a dangerous mental illness, desperate to regain control of her life. On the surface, Hunter (Haley Bennett) appears to have it all.

However, as the pressure to meet her controlling in-laws and husband’s rigid expectations mounts, cracks begin to appear in her carefully created facade.

Austin Stowell, Elizabeth Marvel, David Rasche, and Denis O’Hare also star in Swallow
