    The Absence of Eden Trailer

    “Your crops, your children, your future. We make it all grow. And what do you do…?” Roadside Attractions has revealed an official trailer for an indie border drama titled The Absence of Eden, made by filmmaker Marco Perego. This premiered at a few festivals last year including the Newport Beach Film Festival and is now set for a US release in limited theaters this April. The Absence of Eden traces the sprawling romance of a man and a woman whose love for each other struggles to prevail amid the divisiveness of life on America’s southern border. The film explores the humanity of immigration and the fragility of life as an immigration agent unknowingly dooms a former lover and a woman struggles to escape her past. Zoe Saldana stars as a woman who flees across the border, and helps protect a young girl. The cast includes Garrett Hedlund, Adria Arjona, Tom Waits, and Chris Coy. As vitally important as it is to tell stories about what’s really happening on the US-Mexico border, this doesn’t seem like the kind of film that will change anyone’s mind.

    Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Marco Perego’s The Absence of Eden, direct from YouTube:

    Marco Perego’s film The Absence of Eden takes place at the border between the United States and Mexico – a hellish landscape inhabited by coyotes, armed officers, many desperate immigrants, and refugees. When Esmee (Zoe Saldaña), a young woman working as a private dancer in Mexico, is forced to commit a violent act of self-defense that results in the death of a cartel member, she must flee her homeland to find sanctuary in the United States. Guided by a ruthless Coyote and a group of undocumented immigrants, she befriends a young mother and her daughter along the way. Before crossing the border, the mother is taken from the group, and Esmee promises to protect her daughter and help them reunite in America, touching off an interlocking story about the people struggling to survive on America’s border with Mexico.

    The Absence of Eden is directed by Italian indie filmmaker Marco Perego, making his feature directorial debut with this film after producing a few other projects previously. The screenplay is also written by Marco Perego along with Rick Rapoza. It’s produced by Karl Herrmann, Robert Kravis, Alexandra Milchan, Marco Perego, Zoe Saldana, Julie Yorn, and Rick Yorn. This initially premiered at the 2023 Taormina Film Fest last year, and at the 2023 Newport Beach Film Festival. Roadside Attractions will debut Perego’s The Absence of Eden in select US theaters starting April 12th, 2024 coming up this spring. Anyone interested in this film?
