STAGE TUBE: Sneak Peek of Butz, Murphy, et al. in HIGHER GROUND

Vera Farmiga's directorial debut, HIGHER GROUND, is a coming-of-age drama in which Farmiga delivers a subtle, nuanced performance completely from the gut, with equally strong and compelling supporting characters. Set against the backdrop of the Sixties, when feminism reached its zenith, the film expertly depicts the landscape of a tight-knit spiritual community. Inspired by the resonant memoir from Carolyn Briggs (who also wrote the screenplay) the film is an exquisite study of one woman's internal struggle with the primary love relationships in her life. John Hawkes, Donna Murphy, Bill Irwin, Dagmara Dominczyk, and Joshua Leonard round out the cast, along with Farmiga's younger sister Taissa, who proves herself to be an extraordinary new talent as Young Corinne.

The film stars stage veterans Norbert Leo Butz, Donna Murphy, Nina Arianda, and Bill Irwin. Click below to check out the trailer!

'Higher Ground' will be released by BCDF Pictures, and is produced by Renn Hawkey, Carly Hugo, Claude Dal Farra, and Jon Rubinstein. Jonathan Burkhart, Brice Dal Farra, Lauren Munsch, and Matt Parker will serve as executive producers.
