gesualdo

short film

2024

A mediocre - and murderous - Renaissance composer seeks to cheat his way to revenge, acclaim, and musical inspiration when he falls into the clutches of a chorus of supernatural entities. 

Gesualdo is loosely based on the life of composer Carlo Gesualdo. It uses its fantastical setting to tell a very modern story of hubris, creative mediocrity and toxic masculinity. It shares a love of unfaithful, feminist historical adaptation with the wildly successful Bridgerton and sits at the cross-section of the dark period character drama of Amadeus and the gory period horror of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

More information coming soon.
