The first image from the upcoming Irish folk horror Mandrake has been shared by ScreenDaily ahead of its debut and sale at EFM.
Mandrake follows a probation officer named Cathy Madden (Deirdre Mullins) who is put to the test when given the task of rehabilitating the notorious killer ‘Bloody’ Mary Laidlaw (Derbhle Crotty) back into society after two decades in jail.
The film marks the feature debut of Irish director Lynn Davison and stars young Jude Hill, Deirdre Mullins, Derbhle Crotty, and Paul Kennedy.
Marie-Thérèse Mackle and Paul Kennedy are executive producing the film written by Matt Harvey. Mandrake was financed by Northern Ireland Screen and Northern Ireland-based production house Yellowmoon.
