After the death of their birth mother, two young children are placed in the care of prospective adopter parents, however, it’s not long before the new family begin to question if something more sinister is at play.
Gravitas Ventures distributes in the US.
Actress Susanne Wuest was quoted saying: “The complexity and depth of these characters, how their lives are falling apart and how brilliantly Libby Adam has written them, are a gift. I‘ve also wanted to work with Ben Charles Edwards for a while and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be working on our first film together.”
Co-writer Ben Charles Edwards was quoted saying: “Libby Adam took the basis of my original story and ran with it, culminating in a never before seen British horror with a fast beating emotional heart at its core. It breaks boundaries with a taboo approach to the subject and begs the question ‘how far would one go to be a parent?'”
Directed by Brad Watson (Miss Willoughby and the Haunted Bookshop, The Siege).
Described as a “twisted psychological horror about the relentless and unending paranoia of parenthood.”
Gravitas Ventures released I’ll Play Mother on VOD and Digital on September 24, 2024.
