SWMF Briony Kidd Podcast 1SWMF was founded by filmmakers Briony Kidd and Rebecca Thomson. Deriving its name from the young adult novel by Lois Duncan, it explores the idea of ‘the horror within’ and promotes discussion around genre and gender, from ghost stories to gore, from art house to exploitation.
SWMF has a central focus on women directors working in horror (and related genres) and aims to highlight bold new work by independent filmmakers.
