The actor speaks on the plight of female directors in the film industry and tells the story of her feature-length directorial debut, a horror story where almost no one is as they seem
Although the film is a highly accomplished feature debut, dripping with atmosphere, inventiveness, and intelligence, Garai did not always believe in herself. She says that while young men look at directors and see “some that are incredible geniuses, some that are good, and some that are weird”, the women directors she admired growing up, like Sally Potter, “felt like such outliers that you self-select out of it, because you think, ‘Well, they’re female directors because they’re geniuses.
Garai toys with our traditional expectations of male-female roles in such tales by making things slippery. Birth is portrayed as brutal and bloody , and plays a key role in the punishment of the monster.Amule “I’m pretty angry about things to do with men and women and their relationships with each other,” says Garai, speaking generally, “and I think that it probably has something to do with the job that I’ve done, and the fact that in some ways I think I wasn’t greatly suited to it.”
