“Edit Annie hits like a suckerpunch.”
— SF Chronicle
Reverse. Slow it down. MAKE IT RIGHT.
Annie has the perfect job editing videos for social media influencer Clara Couture: she sets her own schedule, she doesn’t have to leave the house, and she doesn’t have to interact with the outside world. But when a chance encounter brings her face-to-face with Clara in real life, Annie gets pulled out of her comfort zone in more ways than one. A life full of jump cuts, reverse scrubs, and parasocial relationships pulled into the real world quickly gets dizzying. What story is Annie creating? A queer rom-com? Buddy film? Psychological thriller? Claymation creature feature? Where is this Insta Story leading? Heartfelt, comedic, and poignant, Edit Annie invites us to explore our relationships to internet fame, anonymity, and intimacy in the digital age.
