Director Natalie Erika-James’ directorial debut Relic, is a heart-breaking horror film that looks at humanity and our connections with family. The film follows three generations of women from one family as they come together to face the shadows that haunt their minds and their family home. Relic is a powerful all female-led film starring Emily Mortimer, Bella Heathcote and Robyn Nevin.
I spoke to co-writer and director Natalie Erika James for Jumpcut Online, all about the inspiration behind this emotionally driven movie, how the film talks about grief and how there are more opportunities for women in horror.
