I was going about my business reading EW (guilty pleasure) yesterday when I stumbled on One and Two, a sci-fi drama directed by You're Next cinematographer Andrew Droz Palermo and co-written by Palermo and Neima Shahdadi.
The movie stars Kiernan Shipka and Timothée Chalamet as siblings who discover they have special powers. It's all very Superman origin but much lower budget and with stakes that don't include fighting evil generals from another planet and the destruction of entire cities. Instead, One and Two seems to be a low-key family drama with the added struggle of dealing with the kid's powers.

One of the key players on the critically acclaimed AMC drama Mad Men over the course of its run was Kiernan Shipka. With the drama marking her first major role, many were curious to see what direction she’d go in next. Her first foray into features after the end of the series sees her dive into the supernatural genre with her upcoming feature One & Two. The synopsis is as follows.
Two siblings discover a supernatural escape from a troubled home, but find their bond tested when reality threatens to tear their family apart.
Rich Hill co-director Andrew Droz Palermo takes on directing duties, alongside co-writing the screenplay with Neima Shahdadi. Joining Shipka onscreen are Elizabeth Reaser and Timothée Chalamet, and the movie is slated for release in American theatres and VOD on August 14th, and a new trailer for the film has now been released. The trailer can be seen below.

Despite the lottery-esque sounding odds, the U.S Dramatic Competition section which produces the finest American indie specimens such as Frozen River, Winter’s Bone, Blue Valentine, Martha Marcy May Marlene, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Fruitvale Station and Whiplash is fairly consistent in terms of quality. Last year’s crop of sixteen have almost all had their theatrical releases with Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter being the last one out of the gates (pegged with an early 2015 release). Last week we individually looked at our top 80 Sundance Film Fest Predictions (you’ll find 30 other titles worth considering in our intro) and below, we’ve split the list into narrative and non-fiction film items and have both identified and color-coded our picks in an AtoZ cheat sheet. You’ll find 2015′s answer to Whiplash located somewhere in the stack below. Click on the individual titles below, for the film’s profile.

Well versed in the nooks and crannies of the Missourian backdrop, for obvious reasons, the Midwestern state rooted Andrew Droz Palermo knows a thing or two about the casual barbarity of this unpopular indie film destinations. Filmed in North Carolina and with the environment informing his character set, the hopes, impulses and desires in the pinned down teenaged protagonists in his Park City award-winning docu feature debut Rich Hill might ostensibly exist in his feature debut, One & Two. Working alongside cinematographer Autumn Durald (featured in Variety), much like the probable working approach, this began production sans drawing attention to itself (filming began in the mid-summer months), this should have steadily been worked towards a Sundance berth. Sherman was a Producing Fellow with the project back in 2011, so perhaps much like the Rich Hill characters, Palermo can also dream big with back to back years at the fest.
