Castration Movie Anthology i.

2024, dir. Louise Weard


“Why would you do this on purpose?”

Castration Movie is a labyrinthine postmodern epic about gender. In Chapter i. Incel Superman, a production assistant named Turner Stewart (Noah Baker) sees his world spiral out of control as he uncompromisingly attempts to shape his life into the one he feels he deserves. In Chapter ii. Traps Swan Princess, a trans sex worker named Michaela “Traps” Sinclair (Louise Weard) finds her relationships becoming increasingly strained as she decides to pursue motherhood.

Written and directed by Louise Weard, Castration Movie Anthology i. The Fear of Having No One to Hold at the End of the World features a cast headlined by Louise Weard (Computer Hearts), Vera Drew (The People's Joker), Ada Rook (Black Dresses), Alice Maio Mackay (T Blockers), Avalon Fast (Honeycomb), John Paizs (Crime Wave), and Lea Rose Sebastianis and Nate Wilson (The All Golden), amongst a mix of other emerging talent and weird and wonderful cameos.

The first two parts of Castration Movie (each running ~275-300 minutes with intermission) are now available for bookings, with the final two parts to come in 2026.
