Ahead of its UK release this September, a poster and trailer have arrived online for the Sundance hit Hatching. Directed by Hanna Bergholm, the Finnish horror follows 12-year-old Tinja (Siiri Solalinna), whose discovery of a mysterious egg in the woods turns her life into a grotesque living nightmare.
12-year-old gymnast, Tinja (Siiri Solalinna), is desperate to please her image-obsessed mother, whose popular blog ‘Lovely Everyday Life’ presents their family’s idyllic existence as manicured suburban perfection. One day, after finding a wounded bird in the woods, Tinja brings its strange egg home, nestles it in her bed, and nurtures it until it hatches. The creature that emerges becomes her closest friend and a living nightmare, plunging Tinja beneath the impeccable veneer of her family and into a twisted reality that her mother refuses to see.
