COLD - a film about a dead lady
At a time when everything feels like it's falling apart, I'm releasing a project about everything falling apart. In COLD, Jane died sometime last week but didn't notice. This 20 minute film deals with medical gaslighting, misdiagnosis, menopause, the cult of wellness, some really terrible yoga, and duct tape... through a dark comedy and body horror lens.
This was one of those very personal projects that really wanted to get made, and a lot of people did me a lot of favours to make it happen. After what felt like an endless festival run, I'm so happy to be making it public. We were nominated for a Director's Guild of Canada award, and are waiting to find out if we've been nominated for a Canadian Screen Award. I hope you like it!
Starring Canadian treasures Melanie Scrofano, Peter Keleghan, and Sean Baek
