Tormenting the Hen
A caustic satire of city mice set in the world of country mice, where well-meaning cosmopolites fight with eccentric locals in country homes, black-box theaters, backyards, and local pubs is "Tormenting the Hen." Claire (Dameka Hayes), a writer, is whisked away to an artists' retreat by a dippy curator (Josephine Decker) to deliver a political one-act about race, resentment, and masculinity, which she has written for her. Assembled with her fiancé, Monica (Carolina Monnerat) embarks on a relaxing vacation that begins as a wonderful respite for the stressed-out couple until an unexpected visit from town enigma Mutty (Matt Shaw) raises alarm bells. While Claire looks after a pair of troublesome performers, Joel (Brian H. Brooks) and Adam (David Malinsky), Monica tries to save her sanity despite her lover's diminishing attentions and the proximity of her neighbor. This film follows three women as they strive to maintain their independence in an increasingly hostile environment, culminating to a soul-shaking climax that provides no easy answers for either character or the audience.
