Olive is a short film exploring elderly female desire and sexuality.
80-year-old Olive finds her solitary lifestyle interrupted when Jo, who’s in his 30s, rents the cottage next door for the summer to escape his London life. As the heat intensifies, a surprising intimacy starts to develop between them - until a sudden accident leaves Olive depressed and wanting to shut out the summer and Jo. But Jo has other ideas making us wonder – will Olive miss her last chance after all?
Olive is currently undergoing Post Production.
