Indie psychological horror film Sweetie has wrapped production in Los Angeles, Deadline has learned.
Melissa Bergland (New Year, New You) stars as Sweetie, a young woman on a disorienting descent into the heart of Hollywood’s dark promise, driven by a yearning for fame and meaning.
But the city, which is on edge with a serial killer on the loose, reveals itself as a shifting dreamscape that blurs the line between performance and identity. Fame is offered to Sweetie not as a reward but as a total, consuming, and irreversible transformation.
Westly Heart Monroe, Corin Liall Douieb, Milanka Brooks (“Black Mirror”), Frankie J. Mitchell (“American Primeval”), and Aggy K. Adams (“The Witcher”) also star.
Conr Kinman, David Todman, Hannah McBride, Kris Alexandrea, Ianthe Mellors, Shaina Rae, Matthew Brown, Anna Newell, and Conor Copley round out the cast.
Robert Lang writes and directs, in addition to producing under his banner Monkeys Wedding Productions alongside Marshall Arts Media.
