With Covid, we're in the middle of a massive health crisis. In A BEAUTIFUL CURSE, a health crisis of a different sort has struck an island in the UK. Samuel (Mark Strepan) wanders this ominous sleep-stricken community on a photography assignment. But during his stay, he finds himself enamored with one of the residence - Stella (Olivia Vinall) - spending his days imagining the kind of person she is and gradually falling in love with her.

Dialing in from the UK, Mark and Olivia joined Thomas in a conversation about this film and their characters, and during the conversation, a special little guest makes an appearance.
