"Wish You Were Here" will likely be the most high-profile film in the World Cinema Dramatic competition at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival - because it's got actors that Americans might recognize.

This Australian thriller centers on two couples who go on holiday at a Cambodian resort - and what happens when one of the four (Antony Starr) doesn't come home with the others. The police investigation seems to focus on the other man on the trip (played by "Warrior" star Joel Edgerton), who is also pressured by his wife (Felicity Price, who co-wrote the script) and the missing man's girlfriend (Teresa Palmer, from "I Am Number Four").

The movie is directed by Kieran Darcy-Smith, who co-wrote with Price. It will make its world premiere on Jan. 19, as one of the four films playing on the festival's "Day One."
