Road to Revenge’ Trailer is a Bloody, Wild Ride

It’s not going to be fun for Dev Patel and Rosy McEwen as they encounter fairies in the wild; no Tinkerbell here. But this isn’t your average fae tale. It’s a profound exploration into trauma.

Director Bryn Chainey recently stated this about the film, “The lingering effects of trauma are often elusive and ineffable. They can creep and spread and infect. They can play tricks on us. Something doesn’t feel right, but we can’t put our finger on it.

Something is WRONG, but we don’t know why. We are ill at ease. A reluctance, a fear, a pervasive feeling of dread — they can overwhelm us without warning. In short: we are alone. When trauma remains unhealed, it can spread its burdens like a fungus from individual to individual. And the same can be said for a society. But the effects are often so PRIVATE, we don’t know how to heal them.”

The Plot:

Seeking new inspiration and a fresh start, married musicians Daphne (Rosy McEwan) and Darcy (Dev Patel) move to the Welsh countryside to finish their new record. While collecting audio samples, Darcy inadvertently creates a field recording of mysterious sound never before heard by human ears.

The discovery renews Daphne’s creative energy, but as the echoes of her music bleed into the surrounding landscape, ancient and malevolent woodland forces are disturbed. One day, a stranger arrives on their doorstep. The couple initially embraces the stranger, who helps them navigate and understand their new environment, but Darcy grows suspicious of his obsession. As jealousy and paranoia infect the makeshift family, the line between reality and myth begins to blur.
