Seeking Female / Non-Binary / Trans Director

Overview

Hello! I’m Cole Lovell , a queer writer / producer based in Nova Scotia. I’m developing a feature-length psychological survival thriller called CHASEHER — a story following Dylan, a solitary trans forestry worker, who becomes the target of a relentless hunter in the wilderness. Over the course of a single day, the forest transforms from refuge to crucible, and Dylan discovers a transcendent, elemental power within herself.

Tone & Visual Style
