Ginger Snaps

BIHF has teamed up with Accidental Theatre’s Never Seen it Film Club for a screening of Ginger Snaps (2000) as part of the female rage strand within their festival’s programme.

Directed by John Fawcett and written by Karen Walton, this Canadian horror was based on an idea they worked on together.

Two outcast sisters, Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) and Brigitte (Emily Perkins) live in suburban town of Bailey Downs, but on the night of Ginger’s first period, she is savagely attacked by a wild creature.

Her wounds miraculously heal but something is not quite right and Brigitte try to save her sister and herself.
