So happy to share that our new short film, Stinging Nettles, will premiere at the London Short Film Festival at BFI Southbank in January. Shot on 35mm, the film explores power, desire, misogyny, s£xual violence, and the slow, unsettling realisation that fantasy and reality rarely align.
Do keep an eye out as Stinging Nettles begins its festival journey. ❤️
The film screens at LSFF as part of British Lives, curated by
