We wanted to make an experimental horror film that combined the ordinary with the shocking, an unfolding existential mystery designed to keep audiences guessing about the themes and ideas contained throughout the story. AGATHA is aesthetically stylized like a storybook, but with cinematography that is dark and atmospheric. Creating suspense through the idea that something incomprehensible exists around us, with devastating implications.
The film follows “The Professor”, a man suffering from a terminal disease, who by a twist of fate, witnesses an incredible event involving his mysterious neighbor Agatha. Hoping to find a cure to his sickness - he agrees to follow her on a strange and risky journey into a forgotten but not entirely deserted urban wasteland. The passing of time and the disintegration of nature, institutions, and people all set the tone for a story. AGATHA is designed to evoke an unsettling mood and to leave many unanswered questions about the events taking place inside the film, resulting in a suspenseful earth-shattering conclusion.
