The Nest premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 26, 2020. It was later on picked up by IFC Films for a theatrical release on September 18th, 2020.

The official trailer dropped by IFC Films looks unusual and promising. Take a look at the teaser trailer below:

What is it about?

The official synopsis of The Nest goes like “Rory, an ambitious entrepreneur and former commodities broker, who persuades his American wife, Allison, and their children to leave the comforts of suburban America and return to his native England during the 1980s. Sensing the opportunity, Rory rejoins his former firm and leases a centuries-old country manor, with grounds for Allison’s horses and plans to build a stable. Soon the promise of a lucrative new beginning starts to unravel, the couple has to face the unwelcome truths lying beneath the surface of their marriage.”

Set in a the English Manor House of the O’Haras, a gloomy setting, this marriage story might look like a family drama on the surface but has so many layers to offer to it’s viewers.
