Secluded in a desolate forest home to little more than the decaying remnants of the past, a broken family is further torn apart by a mysterious death. Adam, guided by a pervasive sense of dread, hunts for answers only to learn that they are not alone; an insidious presence by the name of Sator has been observing his family, subtly influencing all of them for years in an attempt to claim them.

It's said that this is a uniquely personal film for writer/director Jordan Graham, as it "weaves together truth and fiction to tell the tale of a demon that has haunted generations of filmmaker Jordan Graham’s family. The chilling feature invites the director’s real-life grandmother, now passed, in front of the lens to recount her history of interactions with the being known only as Sator."
1091 Pictures will release Sator on VOD and digital on February 9, 2021.
Benoit interviews the director of Sator, Jordan Graham.
Sator
A malevolent spirit menaces a family already frayed at the edges. An exercise in horror minimalism, SATOR draws you in and holds you captive, and then freezes your blood with freakish visitations and moments of unflinching violence.
