Gee, a writer trapped in a cycle of anxiety, depression, and stalled ambition, joins a clinical trial at Glass Solutions, where an experimental drug called BriteNol promises a way out. When she takes the pill, her body undergoes a violent transformation, expelling a thick, black substance that leaves her feeling lighter than she has in years. For the first time, Gee feels the joy, clarity, and freedom she’s been chasing, but as her sense of self slowly begins to fracture, she is forced to confront the terrifying possibility that the reflection in the mirror isn’t her at all.

Unwilling to process a near-fatal car accident, an overworked director arrives late to the set of his horror film to find that most of the crew has left. Determined to complete the film, he and the remaining crew find out that his trauma from the accident refuses to let him go that easily.

Pulled from Jamaican folklore, DUPPY is a horror-driven meditation on the displacement of diaspora through the eyes of a man grappling with who he is in the world. When a disturbing occurrence befalls a young man packing up a shuttered bookstore on Eglinton West, or as it's better known to the people of Toronto, the neighborhood of Little Jamaica, he comes face to face with a terror greater than anything he's ever experienced.
