Mimi Cave's 'Holland' Explores Suburban Unease with Nicole Kidman in Lead Role

The psychological thriller, set in a surreal version of Holland, Michigan, premieres at SXSW ahead of its March 27 release on Prime Video.

Directed by Mimi Cave, 'Holland' stars Nicole Kidman as Nancy Vandergroot, a high school teacher investigating suspicions about her husband, played by Matthew Macfadyen.
The film blends psychological tension with a surreal aesthetic, drawing comparisons to works by David Lynch and Alfred Hitchcock.
Set in the year 2000, the story uses the slower pace of pre-digital life to heighten suspense and deepen its themes of isolation and paranoia.
Mimi Cave chose to film in a stylized version of Holland, Michigan, capturing the town's kitschy, idyllic facade to contrast with the darker undercurrents of the narrative.
The movie marks Cave's follow-up to her 2022 debut, 'Fresh,' and showcases her focus on character-driven storytelling and complex female protagonists.
