A Worrisome Thing

After a run in with religious zealots threatening their family, the Vogels move with their young son Avery to a small mountain town to hide out. While Jacob commutes to work, and Avery thrives in the local middle school, Amelia becomes more isolated, anxious, and depressed in their remote home. When new neighbors Eve and Able move in down the street, Amelia welcomes the friendship, which quickly blossoms into romance. Eve’s jealousy turns her against Jacob, and takes a dark turn when Amelia discovers her religious underpinnings and sinister motivations.

Director Statement

Hello there! This is Amelia Yokel Egbert, co-writer and director of A Worrisome Thing. This project has a special place in my heart because every single person behind the camera and in front of it is a dear family friend or relation. We started this project in with a script, a location, and a dream. Now we're across the finish line and what a roller coaster it's been! There's nothing like a global pandemic to motivate a creative, am I right? So thank you for being here and taking a look at what we've worked so hard to create. Enjoy!
