Is she dating a werewolf? - ME + MY WEREWOLF (2023 Short Film)

OFFICIAL SELECTION TO INDIE SHORTS AWARDS

A teenage girl refuses to admit that her boyfriend may be a werewolf.

ARTIST STATEMENT (by Tristin Hurst):
In this film, a teenage girl named Kathy refuses to believe that her boyfriend, Jeffrey, may be a werewolf. Her best friend, Julie, repeatedly tries to warn Kathy based on rumors she's heard about other potential victims. This disagreement ends their friendship, leaving Kathy vulnerable to becoming a werewolf victim herself.

This film serves as an allegory for sexual coercion and assault, and illustrates the ways in which bad behavior is protected by societal norms. The characters in this story are more obsessed with their social status and social media than they are about standing up to injustice.
