About the film

We're Praying For You

What it’s about

Madison Neubauer wakes from a five-year coma after a fatal car accident. Her family has fallen under the sway of The Observance, a religious cult that will stop at nothing to protect its secrets.

What hooks you

Ted Raimi plays Richard Abernathy, with Kate Dailey as Madison and Olivia Hallan and Darby Cappillino as younger and older Nia. The film carries the slogan "We're praying for you."

Who it’s for

It suits viewers who like slow-burning tension built around family secrets and the quiet menace of closed communities. It will also appeal to those drawn to independent cinema with a dark, psychological edge.
