Synopsis: Native American folklore says that Princess
Ronkonkoma's lover was scorned by her family because he was from an
enemy tribe and therefore, took his own life. Now, her spirit
remains in the lake, avenging her lost love by taking the life of
any man who ventures into her domain. A young woman, grieving the
loss of her brother to the lake, is determined to uncover the
secret of this legend. Watch the trailer HERE.
The film stars Seth Gilliam

father – daughter protagonists, and also features Larry Saperstein (High School Musical: The
Musical TV Series), Emery Kelly
(Netflix's Alexa & Katie), Steven Thomas Capp (Fat Camp), and
Julie Dove (Days of our
Lives).
Lise Romanoff, CEO/Managing
Director of Vision Films says, "The Lady of The Lake is
an edge of your seat thriller based on legend and lore, but
uniquely also pulls at your heartstrings as it explores a father's
understanding of his fraught teenage daughter in the wake of
their family's tragic loss."
Filmmaker Maria Capp shares,
"Grateful to partner with Vision Films. Lise and her team's
cumulative experience has been invaluable. Their alignment in my
desire to tell this story about my childhood home, Lake Ronkonkoma, and include the experiences
and people I love and desire to work with, is absolutely
refreshing."
