The tense and taut teaser for the Malayalam thriller Lilli captures the desperation and agony of someone who has been abducted. “I have been kidnapped by unknown people. I am pregnant. They killed my husband. They’ll kill me too,” says the titular protagonist at the beginning of the teaser.

Lilli is the story of an abducted woman seeking to escape, but the teaser, which was released on Monday, keeps the details under wraps. Produced by E4 Entertainment, the film marks Prasobh Vijayan’s directorial debut. Lilli stars Samyuktha Menon as the protagonist, along with Kannan Nayar, Dhanesh Anand, Sajin Cherukayil, Kevin Jose and Aaryan Menon.

The film is scheduled to be released in July.
