About

ANGELS is a daring independent short film from filmmakers Sam Mandich & Annabel Newland that explores the growing pains many young women face today when they confront the reality that their bodies will be violently preyed upon by the men surrounding them. The short film thrusts us into a transformative evening for best friends Marcy and Em, two sixteen-year-old girls whose tendency to compartmentalize the predatory behaviors of men around them is put to the ultimate test when increasingly predatory men invade upon their cross-town journey to a house party. Dynamically told with a gripping style and an electric, grounded, diverse cast, Angels will bring international film audiences into the psychological experience of being a young woman constantly confronted with the stakes of their objectification, leaving the viewer breathless... then eager to discuss the film's urgent themes.
