Gerard McMurray‘s feature debut Burning Sands premiered at Sundance and a trailer has arrived ahead of its Netflix release. The drama follows a college student (Trevor Jackson) as he goes through an increasingly violent fraternity pledging process. The film also stars Alfre Woodard, Steve Harris, Tosin Cole, DeRon Horton and Moonlight‘s Trevante Rhodes.
Burning Sands hits Netflix on March 10th.
Burning Sands takes you on a raw, voyeuristic journey of fraternity pledging through the eyes of one favored pledgee, who is torn between honoring a code of silence or standing up against the intensifying violence of underground hazing. Led by a breakthrough performance by Trevor Jackson, director Gerard McMurray’s feature directorial debut brings an emotional honesty to the classic tale of “rites of passage” and the complicated bonds of brotherhood.
