Seven Sisters International Trailer

Tommy Wirkola‘s Seven Sisters a.k.a What Happened to Monday? (2017) international movie trailer stars Noomi Rapace, Willem Dafoe, Glenn Close, Robert Wagner, and Marwan Kenzari. Seven Sisters‘ plot synopsis: “In a not so distant future, where overpopulation and famine have forced governments to undertake a drastic One-Child Policy, seven identical sisters (all of them portrayed by Noomi Rapace) live a hide-and-seek existence pursued by the Child Allocation Bureau.

The Bureau, directed by the fierce Nicolette Cayman (Glenn Close), enforces a strict family-planning agenda that the sisters outwit by taking turns assuming the identity of one person: Karen Settman. Taught by their grandfather (Willem Dafoe) who raised and named them – Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday – each can go outside once a week as their common identity, but are only free to be themselves in the prison of their own apartment. That is until, one day, Monday does not come home.”

This movie trailer immediately reminded me of the excellent BBC TV show Orphan Black. How Seven Sisters differs from Orphan Black is the futuristic setting, the totalitarian government in power, and that all of the clones play the same character out in the real world. Like in Orphan Black, each clone in Seven Sisters looks different from its siblings and has its own personality.

The storyline for this film clicks and works. I have seen many science fiction films that have a interesting premises but they are never fulfilled in their narratives e.g. Divergent. Seven Sisters doesn’t seem as though it will be one of those films. Glenn Close’s character and her henchman bolster the narrative and the action that takes place later in the film.

Seven Sisters also stars PÃ¥l Sverre Hagen, Jeppe Beck Laursen, Tomiwa Edun, Lara Decaro, Christian Rubeck, Alexandre Nguyen, Vegar Hoel, Kirsty Averton, Stig Frode Henriksen, and Cassie Clare.
