Synopsis: Blue’s gift preparations for her beloved Violet transform into something darker when reality picks up the phone.
A romantic gesture like no other. ‘Blue Violet’ is a queer romance horror from the team behind Slamdance Grand Jury Prize winner ‘fishing’ and BIFA-longlisted production company Grey Moth.
