Trailer

Film Synopsis: During the hour of dusk, a woman with no one to rely on but herself attempts to escape a suspicious and frightening man on her train ride back home.

Artists Statement:  

As a filmmaker, Elisabeth is drawn to character driven storytelling that feels relatable and brings out buried, unfiltered emotions. She is particularly intrigued by horror as a genre, being a way to reflect social realities. Her work incorporates elements of horror with social commentary, creating stories that are both unsettling and deeply human.

Professionally, she is interested in the organisation and collaboration that take place behind the scenes of creative projects. During her studies, she directed and produced two digital short films which strengthened her interest in coordinating teams toward a collective vision. She hopes to contribute to large-scale productions, support departmental communications and witness the creativity in team settings.
