About Under The Bridge Of Fear:

Blackmail, intrigue, secret love, deception and dangerous femme fatales smokily swirl to a wild climax in Under The Bridge Of Fear.  In this homage to the great Film Noir thrillers of the 1940’s, hard-boiled Private Eye Hamilton Drake (David Lewis) is hired by his former flame, notorious society dame Georgia Thurlow (Kendra Anderson) and her sultry movie star companion Carrall Cordova (Leo Award Winner Johannah Newmarch) to chase down the rat who is blackmailing them with photographs that could ruin them both. But in the Sapphic underworld Drake is led to, nothing is ever just black and white. Mackenzie Gray creates a Film Noir love-letter to the steamy past of Vancouver with a colourful twist.

The supporting cast is comprised of a wonderful group of Vancouver actors, including Leo-Award winner Brent Fidler, Piercey Dalton, Teagan Vincze, Abby DeForest, Lara Rova and Erin Boyes.
