Feature Narrative / 2022 / Australia / 102min / Directed by Hannah Barlow and Kane Senes
Wellness and self-care influencer Cecilia runs into her former best friend Emma at the supermarket, rapidly reigniting their friendship.
And then Cecilia goes to Emma’s bachelorette weekend… where she meets her former school bully.
What follows is an astute, smart, and occasionally jaw-dropping, horror-thriller about remote locations, youthful transgressions, and influencers…
Writer/Directors Hannah Barlow and Kane Senes’ movie sizzles with ideas and energy, and delivers both, while simultaneously energizing the genre in unexpected ways.
The cast – Aisha Dee, Lucy Barret, and co-director Hannah Barlow, as well as WA’s own Daniel Monks – all deliver, and Sissy is a testament to the homegrown horror movie.
