Can't stress enough the importance of women being able to direct films that look as stylish as this and are violent (not advocating violence irl). Women can make anything awesome when given the opportunity ❀️ #thebride #maggiegyllenhaal

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if a movie with the aesthetic of Sucker Punch was directed by a woman instead of a man… imagine the power #armyofme

Four images taken from THE SIN-EATER short, directed by our very own @kellydirector.bsky.social. I'm working on the feature film version now ... the alt-text drops a couple of hints about what's a'going on.

The Sin-Eater. It's only a short, but it's probably the most distilled and disciplined example of what I can achieve with a story. Plus it got made by @kellydirector.bsky.social and it's utterly beautiful.

Feel like most horror is blood and guts (which I like to watch) but I like creeping people out with spooky stuff πŸ˜‚

Love how film festivals think white male directors with their white male stories are SO fucking diverse to the point they plaster it over their websites and actually boast about it.

Welcome to Beeston Film Festival | Beeston Film Festival

To be really honest, it's mostly in Nottingham I think. But if you go to the website the schedule for the Beeston Festival should be up soon and I think a lot of filmmakers attend 😊 www.beestonfilm.com

The Sin-Eater has been selected for Beeston Film Festival - whoop! A local festival to me & BIFA qualifier BUT I can't believe it's my 1st time playing! I attended the awards last year to watch a friend pick up the Pride B'Oscar & the cinema & team were lovely so I'll be there in April supporting ❀️

THE SIN-EATER will be playing the awesome Meme Pas Peur festival all the way out in Reunion Island! We'll be playing on 21st Feb at 7pm. This is a new festival for me and I just wish I could attend & see the beautiful island ❀️ We hope the audience likes the film #filmsky

My regional Welsh language film has been rejected for all London based public festivals in London we've applied to (which is three, I think).

How do new filmmakers get 'discovered' in the UK? If you're not screening a short at LFF then probably forget it. Do most working-class regional filmmakers even submit to LFF? I think not...I don't, and there are reasons for that. I feel like it would be a waste of money I don't have.

They really are going to force women to start killing men to protect ourselves and will be shocked and horrified by the fact that they thought they made us helpless, but instead they made us desperate and left us with nothing to lose.
