Devil Land

Based on a true kidnapping that took place in the Bronx in the late 1990’s, Devil Land is a gothic tale about a Super and his wife in the Bronx who kidnap a twelve year old girl who live in their building and keep her in their basement in a misguided attempt at creating a family. The little girl however has other ideas. Protected by her terrifying and perhaps not-so-imaginary friend, a battle of wills ensue pitting faith, family and politic against each other. Devil Land is a fantastical exploration into New York City lore. José Zayas directs.
