Emily Harris : 2019
Lara is a sheltered 15-year-old girl who lives with her father and strict governess Miss Fontaine. When a carriage crash brings the enigmatic young Carmilla to recuperate at their house, she provides an outlet for Lara's curiosity and burgeoning sexuality. The pair begin a passionate friendship, but rumours of a supernatural presence drive Miss Fontaine's mistrust of Carmilla. A moody and atmospheric coming-of-age love story, enveloped in mystery and set in the 1780s, it is inspired by Sheridan Le Fanu's 1872 novella, considered one of the earliest works of vampire fiction. Emily Harris's feature premiered in competition in the Best of British strand at Edinburgh International Film Festival 2019.
