We’ve been keeping a beady eye on this new short film for a while after director Katie Bonham toured her previous film Mindless on the festival circuit last year. In celebrating completion Mab, a new poster and selection of stills have been revealed.
Here’s the synopsis along with some glimpses of a lush set looking like a rural apothecary shop fit for Guillermo del Toro should he ever take a visit to the UK. You can keep track of the film as it starts playing dates at film festival across the globe over on Facebook.
Mab tells the story of Rosie (Maria Teresa) and her mother, Kris (Lucy Clements), who struggle to make ends meet. Their only source of income comes from the daily delivery Rosie makes to the mysterious Mab, but what are these deliveries and what impact will this have on their lives of those around them? A magical realism short that uncovers the sacrifices people make to take control of their lives and the evil that lurks in the darkness of desperation.
