As part of Netflix’s ‘Netflix and Chills’ releases comes Eli, which follows a boy receiving treatment for his auto-immune disorder, but the house he’s living isn’t as safe as he thought…
Eli is the story of a young boy (Charlie Shotwell) plagued with an unknown, debilitating illness that requires him to live completely sealed off from the outside world. After exhausting every option, his parents (Kelly Reilly and Max Martini) put their trust – and his life – in the hands of a doctor (Lili Taylor) whose experimental, cutting edge treatments at her clean house facility may hold Eli’s last hope. As Eli undergoes the tremendously intense process that could potentially cure him, he begins to be haunted by experiences that make him question who he can trust and what is lurking inside the house.
Starring Sadie Sink (Stranger Things), Kelly Reilly (Yellowstone), Max Martini (The Order), Charlie Shotwell (Captain Fantastic), and Lili Taylor (American Crime). Eli is co-written by David Chirchirillo (Cheap Thrills), Ian Goldberg (The Autopsy of Jane Doe), and Richard Naing (Fear the Walking Dead). The film is directed by Ciarán Foy (Sinister 2, Citadel).
Eli premieres October 18th on Netflix.
