Perpetrator
Directed by Jennifer Reeder
A dark, body-horror-inflected coming-of-age tale that weaponizes a teen girl's transformation through family curse and mythology into a hunt for a predator.
Jonny Baptiste is a reckless teen sent to live with her estranged Aunt Hildie. On the event of her eighteenth birthday, she experiences a radical metamorphosis: a family spell that redefines her called Forevering. When several teen girls go missing at her new school, a mythically feral Jonny goes after the Perpetrator.
