Sky has released a brand new trailer for The Desperate Hour, a new film with Naomi Watts headlining. The film will get a release on Sky CInema and on NOW on 25th February following a debut last year at the Toronto International Film Festival.
While out for a run Amy Carr (Naomi Watts) tries to escape from what is her daily race. Surrounding her is nothing but an open country road during the daybreak in the morning. Everything is silent, nothing but peace of mind as she carries on, until an unforgettable cell phone ring stops her in motion.
What follows is a continuous sequence of her world crashing down in front of her while she’s miles away from home. She learns there is an active shooter at her son’s school. As she’s too far away from home or the holding area for parents she does whatever she can to protect her son and grapple the situation while on the go.
The film is set in a small town, takes place in real-time, and predominantly unfolds on a secluded country road as our protagonist tries to keep her teenage son safe.
Philip Noyce directs. Here’s the trailer.
