After its premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival this year, Gravitas Ventures has acquired the rights to director Kerem Sanga‘s thriller The Violent Heart, Deadline reports today.
Gravitas will release the film in theaters and at home on February 19, 2021.
The film’s cast includes Jovan Adepo, Grace Van Patten, Lukas Haas, Mary J. Bilge, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, Jahi Di’Allo Winston, and Cress Williams.
“Described as a contemporary Romeo & Juliet-style thriller set in the American heartland, the plot follows Daniel (Adepo) who, as a small child, witnessed the murder of his teenage sister whose killer was never caught. Now 24, he is struggling to find his place in the world and live up to the high bar set by his father, a decorated Marine stationed in Afghanistan.
“After serving time for injuring a classmate in a high school fight, Daniel lives at home with his mother and younger brother and does oil changes at a local auto shop, but dreams of joining the Marines. His outlook brightens when he meets Cassie (Van Patten), an outgoing, college-bound high school senior who finds his quiet manner and mysterious air a refreshing change from the boys her age. But when deeply buried secrets of their small town are revealed, reverberations of the violent past threaten to tear the couple apart.”
