“It took a huge amount of self-belief to make the film this way and huge amount of support from the Queer community, who I made this film for.”

Director of Ellie & Abbie (& Ellie’s Dead Aunt), Monica Zanetti, partly crowdfunded her latest feature, which allowed her to ensure queer representation across the cast and crew.

“It meant that I was able to use the cast that I wanted, 60% of whom identify as queer which was incredibly important to me”.

Watch the queer romcom tonight – available for one night only!
