SACCHARINE (2026)

Starring Midori Francis, Danielle MacDonald, Madeleine Madden, Robert Taylor, Showko Showfukutei, Octavia Barron Martin, Annie Shapero, Louisa Mignone, Joseph Baldwin and Emily Milledge. Directed by Natalie Erika James.

When first-year medical student Hana becomes fixated on weight loss after reuniting with a dramatically transformed friend, she's drawn into a disturbing world of body image obsession. Encouraged by her crush, fitness influencer Alanya, to join an intense body transformation program.

Hana takes the diet pills her old friend gave her – and they really start to work straight away, but she's unable to afford the high cost, so she tests the contents of the pills - only to discover they contain human ashes. Desperate for more, she secretly harvests bones from a cadaver in her anatomy class. As Hana begins shedding weight, she is haunted by the ghost of the person she's consuming.

At first, a spectral curiosity, then a terrifying, growing presence with a ravenous hunger that begins to consume her life. With her grip on reality slipping and the ghost gaining power, Hana must find a way to break free before she loses control entirely.

GOOD BOYS (2019)

Starring Jacob Tremblay, Keith L. Williams, Brady Noon, Molly Gordon, Midori Francis, Will Forte and Lilrel Howery. Directed by Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky.

After being invited to his first kissing party, 12-year-old Max is panicking because he doesn’t know how to kiss. Eager for some pointers, Max and his best friends Thor and Lucas decide to use Max’s dad’s drone – which Max is forbidden to touch – to spy (they think) on a teenage couple making out next door.

But when things go ridiculously wrong, the drone is destroyed. Desperate to replace it before Max’s dad gets home, the boys skip school and set off on an odyssey of epically bad decisions involving some accidentally stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls.
