“The early script drafts were fairly verbose so finding two lead actors who could portray the nuanced characters with authenticity and depth was vital.”

Director @nickrayrutter & co-writer/producer @benjaminrichardson talk to us about the importance of casting actors who could operate across comedy, romance and horror for their delightfully dark short @skewered_film which finds a couple in a stagnant relationship forced to confront each other when strange hidden secrets become revealed.
