Shrishty is a decade-old journalist covering a variety of beats between politics to pop culture, but movies are her first love, which led her to study Film and TV Development at UCLAx. She lives and breathes cinema and sometimes wakes up with the close-up shot of Ryan Gosling's hands playing piano in La La Land, in her head.
The Big Picture Zoe Saldaña is on the run in the new trailer of the upcoming feature The Absence of Eden. The movie marks the directorial debut of the actor’s husband Marco Perego, and revolves around themes of humanity and survival. The clip sees her as a private dancer who accidentally kills a mob boss and then goes on a run to protect herself and joins a group of undocumented immigrants going to America.
The Absence of Eden is set in the backdrop of the border between the United States and Mexico. It’s a hellish landscape inhabited by coyotes, armed officers, desperate immigrants, and refugees, all alike. The movie follows a young woman, Esmee , working as a private dancer in Mexico, when she is forced to commit a violent act of self-defense, she has no option left but to run to America for safety.
The Team Behind ‘The Absence of Eden’ The feature is billed as an “interlocking story about people struggling to survive on America’s border with Mexico,” which makes a good commentary on the geopolitics of the region. Perego, who also produces, co-wrote the feature with scribe Rick Rapoza. The themes of the movie look quite intense as it takes a good look at humanity and survival instinct through the lens of undocumented immigrants.
Saldaña is coming fresh off the success of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3, which marked the end of the trilogy of MCU’s favorite band of misfits. She recently appeared in films like James Cameron’s long-awaited Avatar: The Way of Water, which blew away the audience again as well as the TV series Special Ops: Lioness, a Taylor Sheridan thriller, that was well-loved by fans and critics, alike.
