The Trailer for A24’s Woodshock Is an Emotional Descent into Drug-Fueled Grief

Yesterday brought the poster for A24’s upcoming surreal fantasy drama Woodshock, and today brings you a trailer, which can be seen here.

The footage reveals that Kirsten Dunst is a young woman who, if I’m right here, helps her ailing mother to commit suicide via a psychotropic, hallucinatory drug. Caught in the grief and guilt of the aftermath, Dunst then proceeds to go down a path of drug use herself, resulting in her wavering between reality and whatever dream-world her “high” takes her to.

Directed by Kate Mulleavy and Laura Mulleavy, Woodshock stars Kirsten Dunst, Pilou Asbæk, Joe Cole, Lorelei Linklater, and Steph DuVall.

It comes to theaters on September 12th.

Synopsis:
Theresa is a haunted young woman spiraling in the wake of profound loss, torn between her fractured emotional state and the reality-altering effects of a potent cannabinoid drug
