Nancy begins to suspect that Fred is hiding something.
After all, how many work trips can an optometrist even go on?
Although there’s not much to their characters, what is left on the page lacks substance.
In the upcoming thrillerHolland, Nicole Kidman portrays Nancy Vandergroot, a meticulous teacher and homemaker in Holland, Michigan. Her seemingly perfect life with husband Fred (Matthew Macfadyen) and son Harry (Jude Hill) unravels when she and colleague Dave Delgado (Gael García Bernal) uncover a disturbing secret.

Hollandpremiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival and premieres on Prime Video on March 27.
