(PCM) The supernatural thriller Jinn follows Shaun, an automotive designer who receives a cryptic and ominous message that changes the course of his life forever, and opens in U.S. theaters on a limited run starting April 4.
In the beginning, three were created. Man made of clay. Angels made of light. And a third made of fire. For centuries, stories of angels and men have captured the imagination and been etched into history crossing all boundaries of culture, religion and time. These two races have dominated the landscape of modern mythology, shrouding the evidence that a third was ever created.
This third race, born of smokeless fire, was named the jinn. Similar to humans in many ways, the jinn lived invisibly among us and only under dire or unusual circumstances were our paths ever meant to cross.
As humans became the dominant force on Earth, contact between jinn and man steadily decreased and other rationales were conjured from our minds to explain the unexplainable. Modern man has all but forgotten this third race ever existed. It is time for him to remember.
Shawn(Dominic Rains), an automotive designer, enjoys an idyllic life with his new wife Jasmine (Serinda Swan) until it is interrupted with a cryptic message. The message warns of imminent danger and a curse that has afflicted his family for generations. Having lost his parents as a child, Shawn doesn’t believe this unsettling revelation of his past….until strange things start to happen.

With their help, and the aid of Ali (Faran Tahir), a shackled mental patient, Shawn discovers that there is far more to this world than he ever imagined.
