In this timely thriller, charismatic and ruthless businessman Rick Carver (Academy Award® nominee Michael Shannon) is making a killing by repossessing homes – gaming the real estate market, Wall Street banks and the US government. When he evicts Dennis Nash (Golden Globe nominee Andrew Garfield), a single father trying to care for his mother (Academy Award® nominee Laura Dern) and young son (newcomer Noah Lomax), Nash becomes so desperate to provide for his family that he goes to work for Carver – the very man who evicted him in the first place.

Carver promises Nash a way to regain his home and earn security for his family, but slyly seduces him into a lifestyle of wealth and glamour. It is a deal-with-the-devil that comes with an increasingly high cost – on Carver’s orders, Nash must evict families from their homes. As Nash falls deeper into Carver’s web, he finds his situation grows more brutal and dangerous than he ever imagined.

99 HOMES is directed by Ramin Bahrani, produced by Ashok Amritraj, Ramin Bahrani, Justin Nappi and Kevin Turen. The screenplay was written by Ramin Bahrani and Amir Naderi, from a story by Ramin Bahrani and Bahareh Azimi.  Cinematography by Bobby Bukowski, Edited by Ramin Bahrani, Production Design by Alex DiGerlando, Original Score by Anthony Partos and Matteo Zingales, Costume Design by Meghan Kasperlik, Make-Up and Hairstyling by Remi Savva and Amy Wood, Sound Mixing by Micah Bloomberg and Mark A.
