FILM
CROWDED RIVER
Written & produced by Max Sharam. Directed by Andrew Sully.
When Jane, a mid-career novelist racing a looming deadline, accepts a last-minute dog-sitting stay in a secluded riverside home — the perfect hideout to finish her book, or so she thinks — ordinary moments begin to feel charged with unease. The quiet quickly curdles. A stranger arrives, claiming to be ‘maintenance.’ No phone signal. A river sealed in ice. Footprints in the snow. What starts as a working retreat becomes a tightening psychological trap. Is ‘maintenance’ a threat — or is Jane’s fear the real enemy? A slow-burn story about deadlines, doubt, and the danger of ignoring your instincts.
