Somewhere along the mid-19th century American East Coast frontier, two neighbouring couples battle hardship and isolation, witnessed by a splendid yet testing landscape, challenging them both physically and psychologically. Based on the novel of the same name by Jim Shepard, THE WORLD TO COME has been reimagined for the screen by Shepard in collaboration with Ron Hansen (The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford) and is directed by Mona Fastvold (The Sleepwalker).
In this frontier romance, framed by the four seasons and set against the backdrop of rugged terrain, Abigail (Katherine Waterston), a farmer's wife, and her new neighbor Tallie (Vanessa Kirby) find themselves powerfully, irrevocably drawn to each other. As grieving Abigail tends to the needs of her taciturn husband Dyer (Casey Affleck) and Tallie bristles at the jealous control of her husband Finney (Christopher Abbott), both women are illuminated and liberated by their intense bond, filling a void in their lives they never knew existed.
