About this Event
We’re delighted to be screening Wild Swimmers, alongside a Q&A with writer-director Ric Rawlins!
When wild swimmers begin vanishing without trace, journalism student Deji decides to investigate. But the further downstream she goes, the more the old stories resurface – and when the river turns red, it’s time to start swimming.
Filmed on location on the River Avon, this south west based film sold out its premiere at the Bath Film Festival, attracting rave reviews for its original approach to the vampire genre.
Capturing the poetry of the river as well as the thrill of the chase, Wild Swimmers takes its cues from serial killer thrillers like Seven, Zodiac and Silence of the Lambs, while subverting them with creature feature elements.
Ahead of its release to streaming later in the year, writer director Ric Rawlins is touring the film with an exclusive introduction and Q&A session.
“Kwok is outstanding” – Film Threat
“With interesting lore, gorgeous visuals and some genuinely creepy moments, Wild Swimmers has both charm and something to say.” - Becky Darke (Evolution of Horror, Empire magazine)
