The short-film Surrogate is a story of love, grief and identity-theft. After the death of Jenny, a young woman in her 20s, her boyfriend Andrea and her mother Monica, grieve together. Peace seems to settle over the pair until there is a knock on the door, a young woman who introduces herself as a medium with a message from Jenny.
The film draws on various influences from filmmakers such as Chantal Akerman, David Lynch and Apichatpong Weerasethakul.
