Taylor Swift plays a minor role in The Giver, the forthcoming film adaptation of Lois Lowry‘s 1993 novel — and until now, only seconds of her cameo have been shown. A new clip (premiered by Yahoo!) reveals that Swift’s small role as Rosemary is also pivotal.

Rosemary sits at the piano next to Jeff Bridges as the titular role, showing him how to play a song (while appearing in hologram form). Meanwhile, the real-life Giver starts explaining to his protege Jonas (Brenton Thwaites) exactly who she is and why she matters.

The Giver premieres in theaters nationwide on August 15. For now, see a preview of Swift’s cameo up top.
