Storage Units: Luna Carmoon Collects Hayley Squires, Leon & Quinn for “Hoard”

Date:

Screen Daily reports that Brit writer-director Luna Carmoon has begun production on her directorial debut and has enlisted the likes of Laura Lightfoot Leon, Joseph Quinn and Hayley Squires from I, Daniel Blake and Peter Strickland’s zesty departure store bliss In Fabric. Backed by BBC Film and the BFI, Hoard focuses on the close bond between a mother and daughter. Produced by Erebus Pictures’ Helen Simmons, Delaval Film’s Loran Dunn and Anti-Worlds’s Andy Starke, Carmoon was among the Sundance Institute’s Ignite Fellows for burgeoning new filmmakers.

Carmoon’s debut short, Nosebleed, premiered at the BFI London Film Festival and was selected for Sundance Ignite. Her next project Shagbands, made with Film4 and BFI Network, also premiered at the London Film Festival. We’ve discovered Carmoon through her IG channel – and she is was vibing 70’s cinema aestheticism – so we’re really curious what dark spaces she might visit in this feature debut.
