TORONTO – Hollywood Suite announced today the world television premiere of The Corruption of Divine Providence (2020), an award-winning feature from writer-director Jeremy Torrie.
The supernatural thriller “follows the chilling story of a teenage girl who becomes a battleground for good and evil,” a press release says.
It is set in western Manitoba and “explores what happens when a messenger from God tests the character of humanity. When a sixteen year old stigmatic Métis girl is kidnapped from a small French Canadian town where division and discontent lurk beneath the surface, different religious factions vie for control over her upon her eventual return.”
Torrie (Waabishki Makwa) is an Ojibway from Wauzhushk Onigum First Nation. “I’m ecstatic to see Hollywood Suite premiere The Corruption of Divine Providence to all Canadians. They’ve been an incredible supporter of my maturation as a filmmaker and Indigenous cinema as a whole,” he said in the press release.
“We are proud to support Indigenous storytellers at Hollywood Suite and look forward to sharing Jeremy’s thought-provoking film and compelling perspective with our audience,” said Sharon Stevens, vice-president of programming at Hollywood Suite.
The Corruption of Divine Providence stars Elyse Levesque (Ready or Not), Ali Skovbye (Firefly Lane), Tantoo Cardinal (Fall Around Her), David La Haye (Bad Blood), Corey Sevier (Immortals), Eugene Brave Rock (Wonder Woman) and Paul Amos (Assassin’s Creed).
It will premiere on Hollywood Suite on Nov. 4 at 9 p.m. ET and will be available on demand starting Nov. 1.
