You Are Not My Mother

Directed by Kate Dolan

An eerie Irish folk horror about a teenage girl and her mother who goes missing, only to return with an increasingly uncanny change in personality. Sensitively evoking the devastating dissonance that can occur when caring for a family member coping with mental illness, writer-director Kate Dolan inventively applies supernatural intervention rooted in the more sinister swathes of Irish folklore to create an unsettling doppelgänger drama.
