I caught short film 'Giltrude's Dwelling' by director Jeremy Lutter at the Starburst International Film festival in 2020. I hadn't seen anything about the film prior, and I was honestly blown-away by it's quality, it's promise and its originality. The concept reminded me of one of my favourite book series by Ilona Andrews: The Innkeeper Chronicles, but its differences from this series only make it better. I'd love to see this short film made into a feature-length film, or a series: there's certainly enough scope and stories to be told from this premise. The fantastical house, the multiple worlds, the relationship and history between Giltrude, played by The Magician's Kacey Rohl, and her parents, played by recognisable faces Priscilla Faia and Jesse Hutch.. not to mention the life-altering consequences of Oscard's introduction, played by the fantastic young, up-and-coming Liam Hughes, in Giltrude's life... please. PLEASE, show us more! Marcy Waughtal's script and the performances have you hooked. The design of the house, it's magic and landing on other worlds, and the books with the patterns of the house's movement, the creatures out in this worlds.. the costumes, everything. It's a beautiful, magical film and I desperately want to see more. Congratulations to everyone involved! Highly, highly recommend.
