‘What We Hide’ is a haunting, slow-burning thriller that grips you from the very first frame. In a raw, emotionally devastating performance, Mckenna Grace stars as Spider, the fiercely protective older sister to Jessie, played with heartbreaking innocence by Jojo Regina. After their mother’s fatal overdose, the girls make an unthinkable decision: hide her body to avoid being separated by the broken foster care system they fear more than death.
Set in a forgotten rural town where silence can be a survival tool, the story unravels with chilling tension. Jesse Williams brings measured intensity as the local sheriff, whose suspicions grow whilst navigating his own moral compass. And Dacre Montgomery is chilling as the unpredictable dealer whose presence reminds us that sometimes, the real threat is what’s left behind.
‘What We Hide’ is not just a movie—it’s a gritty, emotional gut-punch about sisterhood, survival, and the secret lives of children forced to grow up too fast. You won’t be able to look away. Watch the trailer for the Dan Kay-directed film. It is to show in select theatres on August 8, 2025; video-on-demand and digital release to follow on August 29.
