HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO BE LOVED?

The Story: When Identity Becomes Your Worst Nightmare

"Bloody Mary" a compelling psychological thriller, from script to screen. This isn't just another student film; it's a deep, visually arresting dive into the terrifying collapse of a marriage and a woman's sense of self.

Our film follows Winnie, a young housewife whose life unravels after discovering her husband Oliver's affair. As her world falls apart, Winnie descends into a chaotic mental state, where the lines between reality and delusion blur.

The film battles with self-identity and what it means to be feminine when one is haunted by her husband’s mistress.

1)The Vision: Bold, Experimental, and Chilling

Our visual approach is inspired by films like Trainspotting and Anora, focusing on using rich, chaotic colours to represent Winnie's fragile psychological state.

2) Experimental Storytelling: Blurring the real and the imagined, such as a kitchen transforming into a nightclubto reflect Winnie’s turmoil.

3) Intense Cinematography: Relying heavily on close-up camera work and tracking shots to trap the audience inside Winnie's mind.

This film is a raw, dynamic, and visually experimental take on the domestic drama, promising an unnerving cinematic experience.

Why We Need Your Help

As student filmmakers, our passion and creativity are limitless, but our budget is not. Your contribution directly funds the elements that elevate our project from a class assignment to a festival-worthy film:

1) Production Design: creating the striking, transformative locations, for example, the nightclub-kitchen, that are crucial to the psychological plot.

2) Camera & Lighting: Securing professional-grade equipment necessary to achieve the bold, high-contrast, and focused visuals that define our look.

3) Post-Production: Covering essential costs for sound mixing, colour grading, and professional editing—the final, critical steps to maximize the film's impact.

4) Cast & Crew Support: Ensuring we can properly feed, transport, and support our dedicated team during the demanding shoot days.

Our Ambition: The Festival Circuit

Our goal is not just to finish the film, but to share our unique vision with a wider audience. Once post-production is complete, we are dedicating resources to submitting the film Bloody Mary to film festivals, as students film festivals, WomenX Film festival, Female Eye film festival, young filmmakers festivals and ect.

Your funding is an investment in our film’s journey to the festival circuit, helping us cover submission fees and marketing materials to reach prestigious events and launch our careers as independent filmmakers.
