A woman struggles with the pressures of motherhood and uses a childish game at a local baby group to vent her fury, sparking an unexpected chain reaction.

Phoebe is a filmmaker and photographer spanning fiction, documentary, and commercials. She is known for drawing honest, true to life performances from talent and elevating the everyday to a place that is unique and poignant. In 2020 she won the Young Director’s Award for her documentary “We the bathers”, as well as receiving a Vimeo ‘Best of the Year’ nomination, and her fiction shorts have screened at worldwide festivals. Prior to all this Phoebe worked in the camera department on prestigious Film & TV productions. After putting down the clapper board for good Phoebe was selected by HBO’s mentoring scheme and shadowed the lead director on “Succession”. She is currently developing her short “If you’re happy” into a feature with Film 4. Her previous short films include: “The Astronaut” (2016), “The Dog with the Woman” (2017), “We the Bathers” (2019).
