In collaboration with Dove House, PTFF Focus presents Promising Young Woman, a dark comedy thriller and the 2021 Academy Award winner for Best Original Screenplay. Dove House representatives will lead discussion following the film. PLEASE NOTE: this film has a heavy focus on sexual assault. If that subject matter is too disturbing or triggering to you in any way, this may not be the movie for you.
Written, directed, and co-produced by Emerald Fennell in her feature directorial debut. The story follows a troubled young woman haunted by a traumatic past as she navigates balancing forgiveness with vengeance. Black comedy, thriller, crime drama and feminist critique blend into a highly engaging and timely take down of a dominant culture that too often emphasizes women as victims.
Promising Young Woman was nominated for five categories at the 93rd Academy Awards and won Best Original Screenplay.
