Othering

by Imogen Radwan and Robin L. Finetto

“A young actress arrives at a secluded country house to immerse herself in a challenging role. When she begins having strange dreams, the actress becomes increasingly disturbed by her surroundings. As the demands of the role cause her mental stability to deteriorate, the actress is soon led into a dangerous confrontation with herself.

Created entirely under lockdown with a cast & crew of just two people, Othering is an unsettling psychological horror film, inspired by the stories of Wide Sargasso Sea and Jane Eyre.”

Imogen Radwan is a novelist, screenwriter/director and a recent MA Script Writing graduate. Growing up in the countryside, Imogen owes her creative endeavours to being stuck in the middle of nowhere, with writing being her only means of escape. She has published two novels, Clarice and Violet Minded, and has recently finished writing her first feature film. She has also made a number of short films, with a view to directing more in future.
