Mum's New Boyfriend AFTRS Short Film

Donation protected
Ziggy sees the world differently. In his imagination, he’s a noble Elf, his mum is a powerful Witch, and her charming new boyfriend Rob is a sinister Knight. When Rob moves in and begins reshaping their home, Ziggy becomes convinced he’s manipulating Mum, changing her, replacing their rituals with his own.

Everyone tells Ziggy he’s overreacting. Mum urges him to give Rob a chance. And for a while, it seems like she’s right. Rob is funny. Supportive. Maybe Ziggy is just being dramatic. But Ziggy can’t shake the feeling something is wrong. And when Rob’s birthday gift to Mum sets off alarm bells, Ziggy takes a stand, igniting a night of chaos, fantasy, and truth that even he couldn’t have imagined.

We’re raising funds to bring this story to life. Your support will help us build practical sets, create costumes and props, craft visual effects, and capture the world exactly as Ziggy imagines it - strange, magical, and just a little unsettling. Every contribution brings us closer to turning this fantastical story into a short film that blends wonder, suspense, and heart.
