The Gift
The only witness to the crime was not even there.
Directed by Sam Raimi
Produced by Lakeshore Entertainment, Alphaville Films
A Southern Gothic thriller that weaves supernatural premonition with murder mystery, trapping a clairvoyant widow between her visions and a dangerous web of small-town secrets.
Annie Wilson, young widow and mother of three, makes her living foretelling others' futures—though her own has become cloudier than even she can see. Threatened by a client's violent husband and plagued by visions of a missing local woman, Annie finds herself pulled into a thicket of lies and deception in which her extraordinary gift may ultimately get her killed.
