A Different Place (2022)
Set within the confines of her hotel room, forty-something Evelyn (Michelle Darkin Price) embarks on a journey of self-discovery with Cleo (Adaya Henry), a younger woman who exudes the kind of confidence Evelyn has only dreamed of. They share a drink, a smile, an instant connection, and an unforgettable night that Evelyn cannot ignore nor fully encompass.

REVIEWS
​
"A wonderful two-hander about courage and suppressed desire... a thought-provoking story about life-changing choices as the characters unravel themselves, enhanced by incredibly strong writing that gives the actors a stage to shine on, and a complex lead performance which is where most of the dynamic and focus is. The film beautifully captures her conflicted state."

(Vancouver International Film Festival)
​
"A short film that handles its big themes and sensitive subject matter with a delicacy and respect... The differences between the characters are highlighted by the excellent, naturalistic performances... Triskelle Pictures has quickly become a marker for quality Midlands productions, especially the pictures helmed by founder Sophie Black, who has a rare consistency regardless of the genre she is working in."
