Cine-Excess Set To Launch Female Driven Genre Film Channel

Cine-Excess who are know for their annual international film festival and conference are set to launch their own Digital film channel. Next month the new Digital Film Channel will be dedicated to promoting diverse new talent in cult cinema and female driven genre films. The first three features will be released on Amazon Prime UK.

Films from three exciting new female filmmakers from around the world kick off Cine-Excess’s latest venture: BLACK LAKE (2020), from British Asian director K / XI, FORNACIS (2018), from French director Aurelia Mengin and LEAKAGE (2018), from Iranian director Suzan Iravanian.

FORNACIS, a sensory, hypnotic road movie that evokes the experimental imagery of Jean Rollin’s 1970s vampire cinema tells of the dramatic romance between two women, Anya and Frida. Obsessed by the death of her betrothed, Anya is thrown into a world of confusion, in which Frida’s memories mix dangerously with reality, causing an oscillation between the solitude of reality and the surrealism of thwarted desires.

The haunting BLACK LAKE fuses regional myth with horror movie traditions to tell the story of Aarya, a young female artist who is gifted a red scarf, sent by her aunt from her recent travels to Pakistan. As a result, she is haunted by a Churail: a demonic and malevolent South-Asian Witch and is forced to face the devastating cycles of violence the Churail brings with her.

Described by Variety as a “high concept arthouse genre film”, LEAKAGE follows Jale, a middle-aged woman who discovers that crude oil is leaking out of her body. This unusual yet empowering phenomenon awakens the hope of a better future in her. On the other hand, it triggers uncertainty and paranoia in the male figures that surround her.

All three films also feature as part of an online Cine-Excess Distinctive Visions festival from 12^th-14^th March to promote new visions in cult cinema
