Details: Product Description Brit Marling is “intoxicating” ( The Huffington Post) and “stirring” ( PEOPLE) in the year’s most talked-about psychological thriller. A filmmaker (Christopher Denham) and his girlfriend (Nicole Vicius) set out to expose the beautiful leader of a cult (Marling), who claims to be from the future. But the more they explore, the more danger they face in this “an intricate and taut thriller” (Claudia Puig, USA Today) from writer-actress Marling and writer-director Zal Batmanglij. Amazon.ca Another Earth star Brit Marling cowrote Sound of My Voice, which takes the traditional cult-film signifiers--white outfits, strange handshakes--and turns them on their head. Peter (Christopher Denham) and Lorna (Nicole Vicius), a Silverlake couple, set the plot in motion when they infiltrate a secret San Fernando Valley society in order to expose their figurehead, Maggie (Marling), who claims to hail from the year 2054, as a con artist. By covertly making a documentary about their experience, they also hope to prevent what appears to be a suicide pact from taking place. From the start, they receive a warm welcome from Maggie and the other members, though one of them always drives them to and from the basement meeting room while they wear blindfolds, so the location remains a mystery. They're also unprepared for the degree to which they'll have to expose their deepest fears and the strain this will put on their relationship. If they remain skeptical about Maggie's provenance, her perceptive insights into their character--Peter's fears of abandonment, Nicole's sense of entitlement--give them pause. Director Zal Batmanglij, who went to Georgetown with Marling, gradually introduces two other characters, an awkward girl who attends the school where Peter teaches, and a hyper-efficient woman who's been surveilling the couple. Their connections to the society become clear by the end, at which point Batmanglij leaves the audience wondering how Maggie can know the unknowable unless she really is from the future--or has access to its secrets. --Kathleen C.
