Synopsis for Settlers
On a remote homestead amongst the Martian frontier, a refugee family from Earth clings to hope for a better life. But when strangers appear in the surrounding hills and attempt to run them off, nine-year-old Remmy (Brooklynn Prince) is faced with the desperate reality her mother (Sofia Boutella) and father (Jonny Lee Miller) have tried so hard to keep from her.
An eye-catching sci-fi thriller with elements of the classic western, Settlers was filmed on location in the isolated desert area of Vioolsdift, situated in the Northern Cape in South Africa. London-based filmmaker Wyatt Rockefeller’s feature film debut, Settlers is among the NYU Production Lab’s slate of supported projects. Rockefeller received a dual MBA-MFA in film at NYU and has written, directed, and produced numerous short films, commercials, and documentaries. The film hits theaters and ON Demand beginning Friday, July 23!
