Dana Kippel (pictured in Hellhounds, Escape to the Cove) will star and direct the sci-fi thriller Reflect, a film she also wrote, says Deadline.
“The story follows Summer (Kippel), unhappy with her boyfriend (Corey Brooks), who receives a mysterious email inviting her out to a spiritual obstacle course. Summer gathers her four friends (Grace Patterson, Jadelyn Breier, Marissa Patterson), each battling a dilemma of their own, to drive to the Sedona Desert, where they are promised this ‘vortex’ will improve their lives. They embark on these courses with the help of their uncanny guide Hermes (Joe Filippone), who leads them into a series of unusual practices.
“Little do they know they are being monitored by mysterious hooded entities, eager to take over their bodies.”
Kippel will produce through Crazy Carrot Films. Michael DeLano of COTU Media will serve as executive producer.
Production will last for several weeks in Sedona, Arizona and the California desert.
