Dark Sky Films has unveiled the official trailer today for Hood Witch.

The film “follows a single mother Nour and her son. Nour makes a living from smuggling exotic animals and illicit products (birds of prey, venom, rare roots, etc.). Wishing to get her son out of the city and offer him a better future, she designs and develops a mobile app that connects clients and marabouts. It’s a success, but a patient’s consultation turns into a tragedy and Nour has to face a wave of violence that could cost her and her son their lives.”

Golshifteh Farahani (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Body of Lies, Extraction, Extraction 2) stars as Nour.  Amine Zariouhi, Denis Lavant, Alexis Manenti, Karim Belkhadra, and Issaka Sawadogo also star.

The film, which premiered last year at SXSW, marks the feature debut of emerging French director Saïd Belktibia. Belktibia co-wrote Hood Witch with Louis Penicaut.

Hood Witch releases in select theaters and digital platforms on March 21, 2025.
