Carry On

2026 Short Development

Logline
A bruised woman wakes strapped to a chair in an abandoned warehouse, guided only by the drip of a tap, a failing lightbulb—and a child’s gentle voice next door. As the horror swells, her bid for freedom collides with a chilling truth about innocence, complicity, and survival.

Director’s note
Carry On is built to be experienced in real time: one room, one perspective.

Is a story about resilience of spirit but is also a true reflection regarding the normalization of violence in film, media and even advertising. The little hints that belong in our daily lives of violence sometimes even without our very own realisation, develops a particular sense of desensitization towards it, making us slowly but steadily more accepting of those small acts of violence and abuse that without those hints, we would never accept.

Carry On is a film that simbolises that struggle between fighting the violence and accepting it whilst being victimised by it.
