Willem Dafoe and Glenn Close co-star in the latest from director Tommy Wirkola (“Dead Snow,” “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters“) which tells the story of a man who teaches his seven granddaughters how to evade the authorities who have instituted a “One Child Policy,” but one day, one of them disappears. Here’s the official synopsis:
In a not so distant future, where overpopulation and famine have forced governments to undertake a drastic “One Child Policy,” seven identical sisters 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 (Noomi Rapace). 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…
“What Happened To Monday” hits Netflix on August 18th.
