Azrael
In a world where no one speaks, a devout female-led community hunts down a young woman who has escaped imprisonment. Recaptured, Azrael is due to be sacrificed to an ancient evil in the wilderness, but fights for her own survival.
The film box office disappointment against its modest budget of $12.0M, earning $631K globally (-95% loss). While initial box office returns were modest, the film has gained appreciation for its unconventional structure within the action genre.
