The Childhood of a Leader

The Childhood of a Leader

The Childhood of a Leader marks the feature film directorial debut of Brady Corbet and he won Best Debut Film and Best Director at the Venice International Film Festival last year.

The movie is based on the short story of the same name by Jean-Paul Sartre and was adapted into a screenplay by Corbet and Mona Fastvold.

The brand new trailer for the film has arrived and we have it for you to take a look at:

Berenice Bejo, Robert Pattinson, Liam Cunningham, Stacy Martin and Yolande Moreau make up the exciting and talented cast.

An American family settles into the French countryside at the end of the First World War, where the father (Cunningham) is involved in the peace negotiations around the Treaty of Versailles.

His wife (Bejo) is a devout Christian who struggles with the tantrums of their defiant young son, whose wilful outbursts begin to demonstrate a monster in the making.

Infused with the same sense of dread as The Others and The Omen, The Childhood of a Leader is an ominous portrait of emerging evil.

The Childhood of a Leader has been winning over critics and audiences and is not to be missed you are a fan of the horror/drama genre.

The Childhood of a Leader is released 19th August.
