Shadow/Self

“The idea for the film came to me through discussions with Laura Scrivano about our inner critic, specifically as women; this idea of a “shadow-self” that haunts your every move and can render you paralysed with self-doubt. I’ve often thought that this inner critic is so strong that if you could come to accept her and harness her power then she could actually be a force for good — an ally.”
