ANGELIKA’S NOTE

Olivia Wilde (BOOKSMART) "has delivered another unapologetically and staunchly feminist story." (The Jewish Chronicle) in her sophomore feature, starring an iconic cast of Florence Pugh (MIDSOMMAR), Harry Styles (DUNKIRK), Chris Pine (STAR TREK), KiKi Layne (IF BEALE STREET COULD TALK), Gemma Chan (ETERNALS), and Nick Kroll (BIG MOUTH) among others. Pugh stars as Alice, who lives carefree in an idyllic community with her husband (Styles), but begins to develop suspicions that her surroundings may have more to them than meets the eye.

SYNOPSIS

Alice and Jack are lucky to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families. The 1950’s societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank–equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach–anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia. While the husbands spend every day inside the Victory Project Headquarters, working on the “development of progressive materials,” their wives–including Frank’s elegant partner, Shelley–get to spend their time enjoying the beauty, luxury and debauchery of their community. Life is perfect, with every resident’s needs met by the company. All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause. But when cracks in her idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive façade, Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why. Just how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what’s really going on in this paradise?
