A model becomes obsessed with a high-profile murder trial.   Pascal Plante’s thriller, Red Rooms, starts its U.S. theatrical release on Friday, September 6th in New York at the IFC Center. The official trailer was just released for it, check it out down below.    Red Rooms had its World Premiere at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic.
