The flame gutters but doesn’t go out… Ghost Light tells the story of a washed-up child star named Kat trapped in a cycle of emotional and financial abuse, and the toll that the nature of being a woman in the public eye takes on her mental health. When her sister returns and finds Kat at her lowest, dissatisfied with her own life, she has to decide whether to go back to the world that destroyed her. Telling the story of love and survival against the odds, Ghost Light is not to be missed. Writer/composer Molly O’Gorman and director Elena Yianni feel compelled to tell this story because it is all around us; the long-running abuse of Britney Spears, of Jeanette McCurdy and many of her co-stars, the #MeToo movement, the death of Caroline Flack, and the epidemic of femicide and domestic violence that is sensationalised in our media. Ghost Light shines a harsh light on how abuse is facilitated, and asks how we can break the cycle of cruelty. Age Recommendation: 18+
