The Absence of Eden Trailer: Zoe Saldaña Leads Thriller Drama Movie

The official trailer for Roadside Attractions’ newest thriller drama The Absence of Eden has been released, featuring Marvel vet Zoe Saldaña as a woman trying to run away from Mexico to the United States after killing a cartel member in self-defense. The film is slated to arrive in theaters on April 12.

“The film takes place at the border between the United States and Mexico – a hellish landscape inhabited by coyotes, armed officers, desperate immigrants, and refugees,” reads the synopsis. “When Esmee (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 flees her homeland for 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 again in America, touching off an interlocking story about people struggling to survive on America’s border with Mexico.”
