Q&A Screening

Saturday, September 9 @ 5:15pm

Featuring a live & in-person Q&A with writer/director Stuart Simpson!

Join us at Dendy Newtown for the terrifying new Australian horror SLEEPING BEAUTIES, with an exciting Q&A with writer/director Stuart Simpson after the film!

Cahya is desperate to reconnect with her husband, David. With the help of a shaman, Cahya opens a doorway to the spirit world giving her marriage a ‘second chance’. But Cahya is also broke. Behind on her mortgage repayments, the bank threatens to repossess her home, of which David is bound - forcing Cahya to accept a job as a maid for the remaining months of her pregnancy.

Located in the remote countryside, the mansion she finds herself working and living in, is inhabited by more than the odd siblings that own it. Cahya’s presence, with her recently gifted ‘sight’, awakens the tormented ghosts of the maids that came before her, victims of her demented employers. Now a prisoner herself, the spirits taunt Cahya, demanding she send them onto the next world, but that would mean sending David back with them. Something she refuses to do. Between the growingly hostile ghosts and her psychopathic employers, Cahya will have one hell of a fight to get back home.

"Simpson has served up a supernatural thriller that finds the right balance between jump scares and unnerving dread." - FILMINK
