A superb, sly horror-drama debut delivering otherworldly feminist vengeance.”

“Bold and bewitching. Between the haunting score and Colbert’s effortless style, She Will…casts an atmospheric spell through tactile, dreamy visuals.”
– Meagan Navarro, BLOODY DISGUSTING

IFC Midnight is proud to present SHE WILL, the psychological horror directed by Charlotte Colbert, making her directorial debut. Executive produced by horror legend Dario Argento (Suspiria), SHE WILL won the Golden Leopard for Best First Film at the Locarno Film Festival and screened at notable festivals around the world including the London Film Festival, Fantastic Fest, Sitges and Thessaloniki.

IFC Midnight will open SHE WILL in select theaters and on demand on Friday, July 15, 2022, with Shudder launching the title on October 14, 2022.

SHE WILL is a gothic-tinged drama about a declining movie star, Veronica Ghent (Alice Krige) who after a difficult surgery, goes to a healing retreat in rural Scotland with her young nurse Desi (Kota Eberhardt). With her own identity in doubt, Veronica starts to confront past traumas endured on movie sets. The two women develop an unlikely bond as mysterious natural of the wilderness give Veronica the powerto enact revenge.

The score is from Clint Mansell (Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain (for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe), Smokin’ Aces, The Wrestler, Black Swan (nominated for a Grammy Award), Loving Vincent and High Rise.)

An inventive and provocative directorial debut, with #MeToo resonance, SHE WILL is a timely feminist critique, identifying Charlotte Colbert as one of horror’s most exciting new filmmaking voices.

The director said of her movie, “It’s the type of project that’s always seemed to have a will and life of its own. It was amazing to see the different characters that congregated in the story. It seemed to attract a specific type of wandering soul who was interested, not necessarily in the occult, but more in the boundaries or the frontiers of where reality lies; the edge, just beyond what’s visible.”

Huge passion for film scores, lives for the Academy Awards, loves movie trailers. That is all.
