Limescale (Short Film in Development)
“After finding an abandoned baby in a public bathroom, a lonely cleaning lady is finally accepted by her child-rearing co-workers. However, fitting in isn’t all she dreamt it would be."
Limescale is a short film about the struggles of trying to fit in and overcoming the fear of missing out. The story unfolds within an exaggerated society where the expectations of others are all-consuming. It aims to explore themes of identity and the mundane.
The development of this project was kindly supported by Fingal County Council's Artists Support Scheme 2023.
