“Something is going on out there, and it’s affecting us in here!” UK’s Sparky Pictures, in association with Templeheart Films and Kenmore Films, are delighted to reveal an official UK trailer for a British indie sci-fi film called Blank, marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Natalie Kennedy. It already opened in the US in 2022 after premiering at the Manchester Film Festival (view last year’s trailer) so here’s another reminder it exists. A desperate writer signs up for a fully A.I. operated retreat to cure her writer’s block, but when an unforeseen software glitch occurs, she gets trapped inside her unit with an unstable android and no communication with the outside world. Another fascinating Artificial Intelligence thriller about these times we’re in. Starring Rachel Shelley, Heida Reed, and Wayne Brady. This seems pretty obvious, with the android understanding what needs to be done to help her, perhaps with some ulterior motives. Check it out.
Here’s the newest UK trailer (+ two posters) for Natalie Kennedy’s Blank, direct from YouTube:

After checking in at an AI-operated writer’s retreat, Claire (Rachel Shelley) finds herself trapped in her unit with a malfunctioning android. As her captor becomes increasingly unstable, she has to outsmart the technology to make it out alive. Blank is directed by the English cinematographer / filmmaker Natalie Kennedy, making her feature directorial debut with this project after numerous other shorts previously. The screenplay is written by Stephen Herman. Produced by Rebecca-Clare Evans (In Another Life). This initially premiered at the 2022 Manchester Film Festival last year, and it already opened in the US in 2022 as well. Sparky Pictures will debut Blank direct-to-VOD in the UK starting January 8th, 2024. Curious?
