Robyn Lively and and Shanola Hampton to Star in THROUGH THE GLASS DARKLY

Robyn Lively (The Karate Kid Part III, Teen Witch) and Shanola Hampton (Showtime's Shameless, You Again) will star in Through the Glass Darkly, a psychological thriller written by Lauren Fash and Susan Graham and directed by newcomer Fash. Lively and Hampton play Charlie and Amy, an unlikely duo that team up to solve the recent kidnapping of a local girl, a crime which echoes the disappearance of Charlie's own daughter. The script was featured in the Sundance/Women in Film financing intensive in 2017.

Graham of However Productions is producing along with Autumn Bailey-Ford, of Autumn Bailey Entertainment, and Carmella Casinelli, of Bon Aire Productions. The film is executive produced by Stacey Davis and Jim Rine.

"We are honored and thrilled to have Robyn and Shanola in this film. Their passion for this female-led project and their dedication to bringing these complex women to life is truly inspiring," said Graham.

Set in 1997, Through the Glass Darkly follows Charlie, a 43-year-old woman recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, living in small town Georgia with her wife. When Elodie Carmichael, granddaughter of the town's matriarch, goes missing, paranoia shakes the core of this sleepy community, reviving old ghosts and long-buried secrets.

"Through the Glass Darkly, a film I'm dedicating to my grandmother, will delve into the mindset of someone suffering from Alzheimer's. The ?lm will be shot entirely from Charlie's point of view. I want people to experience the dark tension of a mind torn between reality and delusion. And yet, how a person's innate character can hold fast despite this insidious illness," said Fash.

Through the Glass Darkly is scheduled to shoot in and around Jasper and Ellijay Georgia through early March 2018. The film is being repped by ICM.

Lively is repped by Insurge Entertainment and Management 360; Hampton is repped by APA and Reel Talent Management.
