A love triangle turns into mind games in the official trailer for ‘Black Bear.’
At a remote lake house, a filmmaker named Allison (Aubrey Plaza) arrives to play house guest to a troubled couple (Christopher Abbott and Sarah Gadon), who have eschewed their life in the city after inheriting a family retreat. Battling writer’s block, Allison sparks a calculated game of desire and jealousy in pursuit of a new work that blurs the boundaries of autobiography and invention.
‘Black Bear’ explores the complex nature of relationships, gender dynamics, and the erratic nature of love as it traces the conflict between our lust and our longing for internal harmony.
The trailer feels awkward, tense and emotional all rolled into one big ball.
The release date is set for Friday, December 4, 2020.
