THE PACK follows Charlotte (Emilie Dequenne), a beautiful but rough around the edges kind of girl, who drives a beat-up station wagon in the countryside of northern France. Her journey takes a turn when she picks up a mysterious hitchhiker (Benjamine Biolay), with whom she strikes an unusual bond. Stopping at a roadside diner, her new companion strangely disappears, and Charlotte finds herself knocked unconscious and held captive. She soon encounters a peculiar and disturbed woman (Yolande Moreau), and discovers that her blood is being used to feed a "pack" of flesh-eating ghouls. What will happen to her next?
A selection at the 2010 Screamfest in Los Angeles, THE PACK recently received Best Editing and Best Special Effects honors.
Indomina Releasing also recently acquired Griff the Invisible (Ryan Kwanten, Maeve Dermody), Wasted on the Young (Oliver Ackland, Alelaide Clemens, Alex Russell), Bodyguards and Assassins (Donnie Yen, Leon Lai) True Legend (Vincent Zhao, Zhou Xun, Michelle Yeoh, David Carradine) and Fire of Conscience (Leon Lai, Richie Ren).
