Arriving today on a variety of Video On Demand (VOD) platforms, Malgorzata Szumowska's horror drama The Other Lamb is best described as a thriller.
Those are definitely the vibes I get from watching the trailer. What's it all about? The official synopsis explains:
"For her entire life, the cult she was born into has been all that teenage Selah (Raffey Cassidy) has known. Along with a band of similarly cloistered young women she lives seemingly unstuck in time, cut off from modern society in a remote forest commune presided over by a man called Shepherd (Michiel Huisman), a controlling, messiah-like figure with a frightening dark side.
"But when her insular world is rocked by a series of nightmarish visions and disturbing revelations, Selah begins to question everything about her existence -- including her allegiance to the increasingly dangerous Shepherd. Awash in images of primal, dreamlike dread, this provocative fable is a haunting vision of adolescent awakening and revolt."
