Synopsis
Danielle Deadwyler stars as Ramona, a woman crippled by grief after she survives a car accident that takes her husband. Seriously injured, Ramona now must care for their 14-year-old son and 6-year-old-daughter, alone in her rural farmhouse. Then one day the woman takes form in their yard.Ramona assumes the woman (Okwui Okpokwasili) is lost or demented, but as the woman creeps nearer and nearer to the house, it becomes clear she is no ordinary figure and her intentions are anything but peaceful. Now Ramona must rally to protect herself and her children from the grasp of the woman who simply won’t leave them alone.
About The Film
Producer Jason Blum has this to say about the film.
I’ve been trying to find the right project to work on with Jaume, in our system, for over a decade. The Woman in the Yard is the perfect match, a film that’s ambitious in scope but modest in budget that combines Jaume’s vision with the incomparable Danielle Deadwyler.
Cast Member Danielle Deadwyler:
The Woman in The Yard has elements that are attractive to me in a film: motherhood, farm life, country life — and then it's disrupted
And fellow cast member Okwui Okpokwasili has said:
It’s great to be in a film with an all-Black cast where their race is not the focus of the story, but is a layer of who they are.
Wounded and human. They’re in their pain and they’re in their grief and it’s messy. They’re trying and they’re failing under conditions that would break most of us.
