ComingSoon is debuting an exclusive Liberty trailer for Gravitas Ventures‘ environmental thriller led by Nicholas Michael McGovern and Alice Barrett. The film is set to release digitally and through video-on-demand platforms on Tuesday, November 21.
“Matt is a young park guide who feels an intense connection with wildlife and nature, but our anti-hero is also an idealist, an animal rights activist in conflict with those who imprison animals for commercial and entertainment purposes,” reads the movie’s synopsis. “His deep love for animals leads him to take six humans captive and subject them to the conditions of caged animals. As his hostages run the gamut from confusion and disbelief to anger and hostility to grief and despair, Matt compares their mental and physical breakdown to those of wild animals struggling in captivity. Matt’s chilling narrative makes a compelling yet deeply human case for animal welfare. He lets his captives (and the audience) feel the full impact of confinement before delivering his final verdict in the film’s thrilling conclusion.”
