companion

When Iris looked for the first time into Josh’s smiling face, suddenly everything made sense for her. She knows that she is his soulmate, and that everything is perfect! Perfect, until the friends’ weekend at the dreamlike mansion by the lake. No matter how hard Iris tries to be accepted by Josh's clique, it doesn't work. Isn't his best friend Kat bluntly hostile towards her and doesn't the super-rich Sergey scrutinize each of her moves with a lewd look? When an unexpected disaster tests the fate of everyone involved, Iris is forced to finally realize what is really going on. And she picks things up deadly fast... 

COMPANION is one of those fascinating scripts that astonish us with unpredictable twists and turns, which makes it very hard to say anything about the plot. But just this much: the producers of BARBARIAN have once again got themselves a mega-cool project and a great talent in feature debut director/writer Drew Hancock. Perfectly crafted and performed by a sensational cast led by Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid, COMPANION is a real gift for genre fans.
