Mother of the Night is an original feature-length horror screenplay about Sue Olney, a librarian who loses her health insurance and is forced to turn to witchcraft to save her ailing daughter from leukemia.
It’s a film about the lengths a mother will go to protect her child. Sue quite literally goes to hell and back for her daughter, stoking the interest of a local coven who seek to raise an ancient demon from hell.
The film lives in a darkly comedic world somewhere between Twin Peaks and Baskets, while also subverting the family films of the 90s such as Home Alone and Uncle Buck.
