Alicja Bachleda and Colin Farrell in Ondine

Magnolia has released the domestic trailer for Ondine starring Colin Farrell and Alicja Bachleda.

This movie made its way to Toronto Film Festival last year and it will be released in limited theaters this summer.

So, we guess you agree with us when we say that there’s no better way to start summer, than with this lyrical modern fairy tale, mixed with mystery that just needs to be solved.

If you’re not familiar with this Ondine story, here’s a little synopsis reminder: “story of Syracuse, a simple fisherman who catches a beautiful and mysterious woman in his trawlers nets. The woman seems to be dead, but then she comes alive before Syracuses eyes and he thinks he may be seeing things.

However, with the help of his ailing, yet irrepressible daughter, Annie, he comes to believe that the fantastical might be possible and that the woman (Ondine) might be a myth come true. Ondine and Syracuse fall passionately in love, but just as we think the fairytale might go on forever, the real world intercedes. Then, after a terrible car crash and the return of a dark and violent figure from Ondines past, hope eventually prevails and a new beginning is presented to Syracuse, Ondine and Annie”.
