An African woman hopes her new job as a nanny will help bring her young son to the United States. However, when a violent presence begins to invade both her dreams and reality, it threatens to destroy everything she’s fought for.

In this psychological horror fable of displacement, Aisha (Anna Diop), a woman who recently emigrated from Senegal, is hired to care for the daughter of an affluent couple (Michelle Monaghan and Morgan Spector) living in New York City. Haunted by the absence of the young son she left behind, Aisha hopes her new job will afford her the chance to bring him to the U.S., but becomes increasingly unsettled by the family’s volatile home life. As his arrival approaches, a violent presence begins to invade both her dreams and her reality, threatening the American dream she is painstakingly piecing together.

“Armed with mythology and its evocative atmosphere, Nikyatu Jusu’s directorial debut revels in slow-simmering horror, haunting with its shadows.”
– SLASHFILM

“With Nanny, Jusu crafts a contemplative, thematically rich story that deftly explores the emotional and spiritual costs of leaving your homeland behind for an uncertain future in a strange land… It’s the kind of film where the viewer loses sense of time itself, mesmerized by the beauty and melancholy of each shot.”
– HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

“Jusu meticulously calibrates the interactions between her characters, revealing a nuanced understanding of race and class relations.”
