Ian Goggins, Momentum Pictures Senior Vice President of Content has just announced the acquisition of distribution rights to Eric D. Howell’s upcoming thriller Voice From the Stone. The film is based on a screenplay by Andrew Shaw which was adapted from the Italian novel “La Voce Della Pietra” by Silvio Raffo.
At the gates of an isolated stone castle in 1950’s Tuscany, a determined young nurse arrives to cure the mute heir within. As Verena (Clarke) struggles to bring silent Jakob back into the world, she finds herself submerged deeper and deeper into the hidden secrets of the castle.
Voice From the Stone was shot on location in Siena (Tuscany). The film stars Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones) as well as Marton Csokas (The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring), Caterina Murino (Casino Royale), Remo Girone (Heaven), Lisa Gastoni (Sacred Heart) and Edward Dring (Nella Tasca del Cappotto).
“We’re excited to bring this amazing film to the big screen and to work with the talented Emilia Clarke on this project,” said Goggins. “Emilia has proven to be a versatile actor from her dominant role in ‘The Game of Thrones’ to her quirky, yet lovable character in Me Before You. We’re confident that her legion of fans will follow her in her new role in Voice From the Stone.”
Voice From the Stone will be released in theaters and On Demand in the first quarter of 2017.
