The White Pond

Name: The White Pond
Director: Mark Walton
Genre: Drama, Thriller
Released: 2027

Synopsis

Bucharest in 1813. The city gates were closed because of the increasing death toll of the black plague. Over thirty thousand souls were buried in a place called ‘Balta Albă’, the White Pond. The area later became a park, shrouded in mystery and superstition, avoided at nighttime even to this day.
The story of a man who has the gift of a healer, witnessed by his local Priest, which in turn becomes a struggle between the Church, the State and the manipulation of the media, on whether he should be silenced or celebrated.
A moving story of ordinary people who witness something extraordinary. It is at times, chilling, eerie, nostalgic and religiously uplifting.
A simple man graced by God, as he grieves for his departed wife, his failing health and dependence on his local Priest. The Priest has his own demons, as his history and deteriorating relationship with the Bishop, becomes apparent.

Prima Facie - A legal claim with sufficient evidence to proceed to trial. Tessa (Cynthia Erivo) is a brilliant British defence barrister dominating London’s ruthless courtrooms. Fierce, witty, and self-made, she defends men accused of sexual assault - until she is assaulted herself by a colleague from a powerful legal dynasty. Suddenly, the system she trusted turns against her. As she faces the same tactics she once used in court, Tessa’s faith in justice unravels. Once in control, now exposed and disbelieved, she must fight to reclaim her voice and sense of self. A gripping and deeply human story about power, truth, and survival in a patriarchal world, PRIMA FACIE reveals the quiet strength of one woman’s pursuit of justice - and the beauty in confronting the truth.
