Socialisation, emotions, art and intimacy have all been outlawed, so how will James tread the fine line between what he’s been taught, and how he feels?.

A Film Written and Directed by Amanda Crewes
The Backlot, West Perth
November 2nd at 6pm
“You don’t risk life, or take life, without being obsessed with the cause“
“In Sect” is back by popular demand! We are pleased to announce that we will be doing an additional private screening for our audiences who were unable to get tickets to our sold-out event last month.
Nestled between Northbridge and Leederville, experience the luxury of The Backlot – a world class private cinema that supports WA’s local film industry. We are proud to be partnering with them to bring you an encore of “In Sect”.
Synopsis: After a swelling undercurrent of violence at a peaceful protest erupts into a bloodbath, an elusive cult leader’s bodyguard must salvage the plan that he undermined or else lose the object of his obsession… her.
Filmed over the past year, in and around Perth, this cult thriller features Ava Lyas and Josh Long. The remaining cast and film crew comprises other actors from the Studios and students from the Hub.
As you step through the doors of The Backlot, you’ll experience pre-show entertainment designed to prepare you for the intense experience ahead and immerse you in the world of “In Sect”. There is a bar on site for those who want more liquid courage to face the Sect.
Before the film, you will see a behind the scenes documentary showing the origins and the making of “In Sect”. And following the feature, there will be a teaser for our next film, “Footprints”.
You will also have the opportunity, after the film, for a Q & A with the cast and crew – a ‘debrief’ to help you unwind from your encounter with the Sect.
If you missed the premiere, don’t miss this encore opportunity to be part of The Actors’ Hub’s exciting expansion into feature films.
