Watch the trailer for The Unknown Country, a movie starring Lily Gladstone, Raymond Lee, and Richard Ray Whitman.
Reeling from a devastating loss, Tana (Lily Gladstone) is pulled back into the world by an unexpected invitation to her cousin’s wedding. She packs up her late grandmother’s Cadillac and hits the open road, driving from her home in Minnesota to South Dakota. After reconnecting with her Oglala Lakota family, Tana sets off to retrace a surreal journey that her grandmother took decades ago, searching for the spot captured in an old family photograph. As she travels, Tana finds connection in the stories of everyday people who’ve settled down far off the main roads including Isaac (Raymond Lee), who provides a pivotal clue to understanding the lost location that could cultivate closure.
The film is produced by Laura Heberton, Katherine Harper, Lainey Bearkiller Shangreaux, Vanara Taing, Morrisa Maltz, and Tommy Heitkamp. Miranda Bailey, Natalie Whalen, Ty Gordon, Rachel Crouch, Brenda Haynes, Gill Holland, Adam Koppel, Matthew C. Mills, Veronica Nickel, Steve Malouf, Rodes Phire, Mark Shlomchik, and Ben Speiser serve as executive producers. The story is by Morrisa Maltz, Lily Gladstone, Lainey Bearkiller Shangreaux, and Vanara Taing.
The Unknown Country, written and directed by Morrisa Maltz, opens July 28 at the Quad NYC and Nuart in LA.
