Indie Corner: Brit thriller Making Ugly gearing up for a festival run

At the start of the year we posted the first trailer from the independent British thriller Making Ugly, a £7000 feature from writer-director Andrew Niblo and producers Mara Adina and Dara Carroll of the production company Squarebox Yellow, and now we’ve just received an update from the filmmakers to say that post-production is complete and the movie is gearing up for a festival run across the UK, Europe and North America.



The debut feature of Andrew Niblo, Making Ugly is a provocative, dark thriller featuring an impressive Scottish and English ensemble cast of rising stars from UK theatre and television. It follows the tales of three captivating characters on a sinister journey; Neil (Paul Quinn) is a tormented, exiled family man with a secret. Heather (Margaret Ann Bain) is a woman on the edge and about to discover her own terrifying strength. When the mysterious Stark (Jamie Jack Gordon) enters their lives he lures them into an ugly world of mystery and deceit. No one can be trusted when you are Making Ugly.



Making Ugly is currently seeking distribution, while Squarebox Yellow are also prepping their second feature, an adaptation of an internationally successful British novel which is expected to be announced in the coming months.
