Burnt Flowers

Following a visit from a mysterious femme fatale, detective Francis Alban finds herself embroiled in a missing persons case in which all is not what it seems. The trail leads her to a 1960s serial killer who was never caught and a violent gangster. As Detective Alban delves deeper into the criminal underbelly of Swinging Sixties London, will she uncover more about herself than she is willing to face? Past crimes, revenge and obsessive love collide in this haunting and surreal Horror-Noir.

Directed by Michael Fausti, Burnt Flowers leans on a strong ensemble — Amber Doig-Thorne, Michael Fausti, Dani Thompson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2024.
