The trailer starts - a woman sits before a psychiatrist. He is old, British.

He says the flashbacks have stopped - we catch a glimpse of a woman falling into water, bow and arrow in hand, looking up at the surface.

The man states that this is an improvement, though he is concerned that she is still shutting herself away at home. He makes a note of something on his clipboard before another flashback of the woman running through trees, chased by a bear; we hear the man tell the woman how important it is to gradually take steps into the outside world as the woman throws herself off a cliff to escape her pursuer, trying desperately to cling to the rock as the psychiatrist tells her to pick up a hobby.

The woman is agitated by the man - he worries that she is stuck in her mental trauma, like a ship frozen in place. Another flashback - the woman scores a shot with a bow and arrow, and a guard drops to his knees, dead.

There’s another type of person. “You know what happens to them? …Miss Croft?”

Lara pulls back her hood.

“We become who we’re meant to be.”
