Zoë Kravitz Tries to Solve a Violent Crime in Trailer for Steven Soderbergh's Thriller Kimi

Zoë Kravitz's latest film hits close to home.

The actress, 33, stars in Kimi as a voice-stream interpreter who believes she's heard a premeditated murder while intercepting in-home audio from Kimi, a voice service much like Amazon's Alexa.

As Kravitz's character attempts to alert the proper authorities to the violent crime she is rebuffed from everyone she meets, sending her down a dark path as she tries to investigate the crime herself.

"We're dealing with what sounds like premeditated murder. I think a woman might need help," she says. "How do I find out who she is?"

Her investigation soon earns her the attention of higher forces who aim to stop her from discovering the truth.

When asked by authorities if she made a copy of the audio, she says, "I emailed it to everyone I know this morning."
