"Alone With You"
Directed by Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks, the psychological chiller Alone With You finds a woman trapped inside her apartment under mysterious circumstances. Bennett stars as Charley, who eagerly awaits the return of her girlfriend Simone (Emma Myles) to their Brooklyn apartment to celebrate a special occasion. While Charley waits patiently for the tardy Simone, strange things begin to happen inside and outside the apartment. Unable to force her way out to freedom, Charley must contend with an unknown threat determined to get inside her head. Alone With You premiered locally during this year's Fantastic Fest 2021 and is available to stream during Fantastic Fest's FF @ Home on Oct. 2 for a 48-hour screening window. Shot during the COVID-19 lockdown, Alone With You also stars Barbara Crampton as Charley's judgmental mother and Dora Madison as Charley's friend Thea, both of whom shot through their scenes remotely. Real-life couple Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks make their feature-length directorial debut with Alone With You. Aired: Sept. 30, 2021.
