Gregg Araki's 'White Bird in a Blizzard' Teaser

Gregg Araki is back. It's been four years since Kaboom (2010) and even though, I haven't seen his previous film, I am estatic to know that he is coming out with a new film. I've been a huge fan of Araki after seeing The Doom Generation (1995) and Mysterious Skin (2004). It is just one of those film experience that can wholly change your perspective on the world as well as cinema. Sundance is premiering White Bird in a Blizzard which is based on the novel of the same name by Laura Kaischke. Shailene Woodley is Hollywood's most prominent and rising stars and after seeing her incredible performance in The Spectacular Now, I am hopeful that she will knock it out of the park once again in this film. 

The film tells the story of Kat Connors (Shailene Woodley), a young woman whose life is turned upside down by the sudden disappearance of her beautiful, enigmatic mother (Eva Green). Christopher Meloni, Shiloh Fernandez, Gabourey Sidibe, Thomas Jane and Angela Bassett also star in this film.
