A Vigilante is a 2018 American drama film directed by Sarah Daggar-Nickson. The story centers around Sadie (Olivia Wilde), a woman who was once the victim of domestic violence. She now works as a vigilante, helping other women escape abusive relationships.
Sadie's latest assignment brings her to a small town in upstate New York, where she meets a woman named Frances (Eve Hewson) who is being abused by her husband. Sadie helps Frances leave the dangerous situation, but her work is far from over.
As Sadie continues to help others, she is plagued by memories of her own abusive past. She becomes obsessed with tracking down her ex-husband (Morgan Spector), the man who tormented her for years and is still a threat to her safety.
The film explores themes of trauma, resilience, and the impact of violence on both victims and perpetrators. Olivia Wilde delivers a powerful performance as Sadie, conveying both the strength and vulnerability of her character.
A Vigilante premiered at the South by Southwest film festival in March 2018 and received positive reviews from critics for its bold storytelling and emotional depth.
