Roadside Attraction and Summit Entertainment unveiled the trailer for Indignation, based on the bestselling novel by Philip Roth. James Schamus adapted the book for the screen and made his feature film directorial debut with the drama that wowed audiences at the Sundance Film Festival and is already generating Oscar buzz.

The Plot: Indignation takes place in 1951, as Marcus Messner (Logan Lerman), a brilliant working class Jewish boy from Newark, New Jersey, travels on scholarship to a small, conservative college in Ohio, thus exempting him from being drafted into the Korean War. But once there, Marcus’s growing infatuation with his beautiful classmate Olivia Hutton (Sarah Gadon), and his clashes with the college’s imposing Dean, Hawes Caudwell (Tracy Letts), put his and his family’s best laid plans to the ultimate test.
