About
Ten year old Zoe is obsessed with making horror films and is determined to win the upcoming horror flick contest. But her father, worried by her increasingly gory interests, orders her to stop making horror films and demands she shoots her sister, Zilla’s, upcoming wedding instead. Given the circumstances, Zoe has no choice…she has to turn her sister’s wedding into a horror movie! As light-hearted as the film appears, it explores the complexities of gender roles, same-sex marriage, familial acceptance, and expression through creativity.
