‘Oddity’ Star Carolyn Bracken Awakens Her Primal Side in ‘Ferine’ Exclusive Images
Just announced for this summer’s Fantasia International Film Festival, Ferine examines the never-ending struggle between the rational and animal sides of human nature.
We have an exclusive gallery of stills from the horror thriller, shot in Northern Italy’s picturesque Lombardy and Piedmont regions.
Carolyn Bracken (Oddity, You Are Not My Mother) stars as Irene, a wealthy, refined art collector who sees her life turned upside down by a tragic event that awakens a primal, uncontrollable instinct inside of her. Soon after, this new nature takes hold and destroys her privileged existence.
Caroline Goodall (Schindler’s List) plays Dama, a mysterious trafficker of exotic predators who is hunting a specimen that has escaped captivity when she discovers something unexpected: Irene. In her, she sees a new, irresistibly dangerous predator.
A dark fate unites Irene and Dama, dragging both women toward an inevitable confrontation.
Writer-director Andrea Corsini makes his feature debut on the English-language production, based on his 2019 short of the same name.
Paola Lavini and Elisabetta Caccamo round out the cast. Pino Donaggio (Carrie, Don’t Look Now) composed the score.
Visual effects artist Francesco Grisi (Thor: Love and Thunder, Ford v Ferrari) of EDI Effetti Digitali Italiani produces alongside Giorgia Priolo.
Ferine will be distributed in Italy through Adler Entertainment. Piperplay is handling international sales.

In This Tempting Madness, “Mia awakens from a coma grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions, and her perception of reality.”
Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
