After World Premiering at TIFF, the Canadian revenge horror-thriller Violation (read our review), in which a traumatic betrayal drives a woman towards a vengeful extremity, is set to screen at the forthcoming Sundance Film Festival and it has been acquired by Shudder for release in 2021, Bloody Disgusting learned.
Madeleine Sims-Fewer and Dusty Mancinelli co-direct the film that also features Sims-Fewer in the breakout starring role as the woman, betrayed by a family member, who seeks out vicious revenge.
“With her marriage about to implode, Miriam returns to her hometown to seek solace in the comfort of her younger sister and brother-in-law. But one evening a tiny slip in judgment leads to a catastrophic betrayal, leaving Miriam shocked, reeling, and furious.

Meagan reviewed the film and wrote that “Violation approaches rape-revenge extremity with a deeply intimate portrayal of trauma.”
