STOCKHOLM SYNDROME dances between the realms of psychological thriller and dark comedy, entwined within the inspirational and destructive duality of the concept of muses as presented in a clever game of cat and mouse between a washed-up artist and a woman with a mysterious secret.

"As a female producer and actor in the entertainment industry for over two decades, it was so refreshing to find a script that spoke to some of the challenges I've personally come up against in this business. STOCKHOLM SYNDROME sheds an interesting light on the injustices of 'old boys clubs' and golf course handshakes that are finally starting to shift as we blossom into this new paradigm of Hollywood. It's cathartic to play a strong female lead that gets to address some of these stereotypes and say some of the things I've wanted to say for years." - Producer and lead actress, Joey Bothwell.
