Zachary Wigon and Micah Bloomberg’s Sanctuary made a lot of noise during festival season, especially since it has been over 20 years since something like Maggie Gyllenhaal gem Secretary has been made. Also, the idea that there’s a bit of rom-com energy in a dark thriller, albeit a very twisted version of it, is something we haven’t really seen in long time either (maybe Mr. & Mrs. Smith?).

In any case, this two-hander with Margaret Qualley and Christopher Abbott looks so enthralling and full of scenes between Qualley as a dominatrix and Abbott as her submissive that you’ll likely laugh out of both shock and an acknowledgment of the absurdity that is life in the clear and present moment. Maybe it’ll play more like a much more f’d up version of Good Luck to You, Leo Grande?

Whatever is lying underneath the trailer here has us hooked and we can’t wait to sit obediently in our movie theater seat on May 25th when Sanctuary starts rolling out in theaters.

Take a look at all of this devious fun, if you dare, with Sanctuary’s first official trailer here.
