Written by Ben Dudley
Directed by Charlie Roetting

Cast: Lauren Showen, Dylan Shelton, Leah Strasser, Nathan Neorr, Lisa Marie DeRoberts, & Dave F’n Powell.

Dan and Louise are keeping their office fling on the downlow. They’re not sure how serious they are and, well, their coworkers are total weirdos. This becomes even more clear when they discover that everyone in the office reads fan-fiction about their theoretical relationship. Disturbed by this revelation, Dan and Louise find themselves in a war between the two competing storylines: a 50 Shades-esque smutfest and a syrupy romance.

Cassandra, chosen handmaiden of Apollo, was granted the gift of prophecy. Yet, when she sexually denied Apollo, in his fury, he cursed her so that no one would ever believe a word she said, despite the truths she prophesied. ‘My Twisted Face’ uses this myth and the stories of women who have been sexually assaulted/raped to explore the ‘rape culture’ that is becoming more and more prevalent in our world.
