We cannot help but be enthralled by the wave of recent original films making their way to theaters, and another one set in the sci-fi thriller genre, “Hot Spot,” is one to keep an eye on. The main cast for the impressive-looking pic, helmed by Polish director Agnieszka Smoczyńska (“The Silent Twins”) from a script penned by screenwriter Robert Bolesto, consists of Andrzej Konopka, Noomi Rapace, and Reika Kirishima.
A trailer for the original project has made its way to us, and it looks like one of the more visually striking summer offerings we’ll be getting, as it certainly oozes creativity with some impressive production design and a breakneck level of energy.
