Apartment 303 is a chilling psychological drama that pulls back the curtain on trauma, isolation, and the silent battles we fight within ourselves. Allie, a reclusive artist, struggles to navigate life after a tragic childhood incident. Plagued by a debilitating sleep disorder, she minimises her pain to those around her, pretending things are fine even as her world crumbles.

Her sister Rachel, by contrast, lives a vibrant and connected life, highlighting the chasm between them. Beneath the surface, Allie’s suppressed trauma festers, bleeding into her present. 

Apartment 303 explores the unseen weight of untreated pain and the quiet desperation of trying to appear “normal” when everything feels anything but. It’s a raw, suspenseful tale that blurs the lines between nightmare and reality, drawing viewers into Allie’s fractured world in a way they’ll never forget.

Why We’re Making This Film

Representation matters. Too often, stories of trauma and resilience are told through a lens that lacks nuance or depth, especially when it comes to female characters. Apartment 303 flips that script, giving us a narrative that’s raw, real, and gripping.

We want to see strong, complex women on screen—characters who challenge stereotypes, who feel authentic, and who reflect the real, messy, beautiful complexities of life. This is the kind of storytelling that drives us as filmmakers, and it’s why we’re so passionate about bringing Apartment 303 to life.

What We Need

Making a film is no small feat, especially for an indie production company just starting out. That’s where you come in. Your support will help us:

- Feed and care for our cast and crew. We want to ensure everyone feels valued on set, providing food, drinks, and the little comforts that make long days manageable.

- Fund post-production. Editing, sound design, and festival submissions require resources we can’t achieve without you.

Why Your Support Matters

When you back this project, you’re not just funding a film—you’re investing in the future of a female-led production company determined to shake up the industry. You’re helping us prove that inclusive, thoughtful storytelling has a place in the world and that voices like ours deserve to be heard.
