"You'll see pretty soon what I'm capable of." Game Theory Films has unveiled a trailer for the Canadian indie film titled
Darkest Miriam, the latest feature film directed by filmmaker
Naomi Jaye (also of
The Pin previously). This first premiered at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival last summer, then it went on to win Best Director at the 2024 Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal. Miriam Gordon lives in a fog of grief while working in a downtown public library branch. When a burgeoning love-affair coincides with her receiving a series of oddly threatening letters, Miriam's sheltered existence is cracked open. This is executive produced by
Charlie Kaufman, and it's described as a Kaufman-esque little film exploring the idea "how sometimes the people we deem to have the simplest lives are actually living in their own magical worlds, filled with mysteries and odd characters." Sounds super sweet and amusing. Starring
Britt Lower (known as Helly on "Severance") as a librarian, along with
Tom Mercier,
Sook-Yin Lee,
Jaimara Beals, and
Jean Yoon. This seems like a quirky, distinct, smart little indie gem! Just waiting to be discovered - check it out below. //
