Sci-Fi & Scary interviewed Nicole Jones-Dion in the past. You can find that interview here. In fact, we actually addressed Stasis in the interview!
S&S: Tell us a bit about Stasis, your upcoming movie, if you can? IMDB is not very helpful at the moment!
Nicole Jones-Dion: The producers are being pretty secretive, but I found this synopsis elsewhere online so I think it’s safe to share: “After a night out of partying and left behind by her friends, Ava wakes up and sneaks back home only to find that she’s already safe in bed. But that’s not Ava… it’s someone who looks just like her. A time-traveling fugitive has stolen Ava’s body, her identity, and her life. What’s more — she’s not alone. There are others, hiding in the past, secretly living among us, plotting to alter the future. Without her body, Ava is a virtual ghost, silent and invisible to the world. And, as far as she knows, she’s the only one who can stop them and put the timeline back on course.”
