The gorgeous actress Shruti Haasan is all set for her international debut as a female lead with the much-anticipated British psychological thriller “The Eye”. Directed by Daphne Schmon, this film will have its Indian premiere on February 27th as an opening feature at the 5th Wench Film Festival in Mumbai.
The Eye explores the thrilling story of Diana (Shruti Haasan), who travels to a remote island where her husband Felix (Mark Rowley) tragically drowned, hoping to find peace by scattering his ashes. However, her sorrow soon transforms into curiosity when she discovers the enigmatic ‘Evil Eye’ ritual—an age-old tradition that could resurrect Felix but requires a sinister and unsettling sacrifice.
Filmed on location in Athens and Corfu, the movie captures the haunting beauty of Greece, amplifying its eerie and suspenseful atmosphere. After its debut at the London Independent Film Festival in 2023 and its feature at the Greek International Film Festival, The Eye continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
The film features Mark Rowley, Linda Marlowe, Anna Savva, Christos Stergioglou and Elpida Stathatouin in other key roles. It is written by Emily Carlton and produced by Melanie Dicks. The Eye will have its theatrical release later this year.
