Her Mad Hatter
Morning Lark Productions is thrilled to produce this fantasy romance feature adapted from best-selling novel, Her Mad Hatter by Marie Hall. The production is now in development.
About the film:
Through the nuanced main character of Hatter, the film explores the stigma, effects, and treatment of mental illness.
Due to its representation of the realities of mental illness, Her Mad Hatter was previously approved for the enhanced incentive of Washington Filmworks’ Small Budget Initiative Program.
The project is helmed by an award-winning team of BIPOC, queer women and nonbinary folks.
Writer / director, Nicole Pouchet, has won numerous screenwriting and filmmaking awards and is known for incorporating social commentary into her projects. Her first short film, Retch, premiered at the Oscar-qualifying festival, Seattle International Film Festival. Her second, Such an Honor, was featured in a festival connecting artists and the United Nations.
The Northwest Film Forum is the fiscal sponsor of Her Mad Hatter. Tax deductible donations for the film can be made directly to the nonprofit.
Current cast and crew listed on IMDb.
The Mad Hatter and a grown-up Alice from the real world must fall in love in three days or the Mad Hatter’s mental illness will destroy all of Wonderland.
