New stills have emerged from CAMP X-RAY, a tense war drama from newbie director Peter Sattler and starring Kristen Stewart.
Set in post-9/11 America, Kristen stars as Private Amy Cole, a young woman determined to make something of herself in the US Army. However, instead of being sent out to Afghanistan she’s assigned a role as a guard in Guantanamo Bay. While facing hostility from many of the prisoners Amy manages to strike up a friendship with Ali Amir (Peyman Moaadi), one of the detainees, as the pair attempt to come to terms with their separate – but intertwining – situations. Julia Duffy, Tara Holt, Cory Michael Smith, Lane Garrison. Joseph Julian Soria, John Carroll Lynch and Yousuf Azami co-star.
Although focusing on an interesting and controversial topic, reviews from CAMP X-RAY’s debut at Sundance Film Festival were a little mixed, as Kristen’s name typically tends to divide audiences. We’ll have to wait for a full trailer to get a better idea of the film and its stars.
CAMP X-RAY arrives in US cinemas from October 2014.
