Starring Hunter Schafer (Euphoria), the film is directed by Tilman Singer (Luz).

The film made its debut in February at the SXSW festival, and it sounds as though it’s just as odd as you are expecting it to be.

Reluctantly, 17-year-old Gretchen leaves her American home to live with her father, who has just moved into a resort in the German Alps with his new family. Arriving at their future residence, they are greeted by Mr. König, her father’s boss, who takes an inexplicable interest in Gretchen’s mute half-sister Alma. Something doesn’t seem right in this tranquil vacation paradise. Gretchen is plagued by strange noises and bloody visions until she discovers a shocking secret that also concerns her own family.

Cuckoo will hit theaters on Aug. 9.
