Isaac MoneyCountry: United Kingdom
Marloo marks the directorial debut of Australian-born, London-based actor and filmmaker Isaac Money. With over a decade of professional acting experience across major and independent productions, he has collaborated with companies such as Amazon, Sky, and the BBC.
Over the years, Isaac has closely observed the filmmaking process from an actor’s perspective, which has deeply informed his approach to directing.
Marloo explores the aftermath of sexual abuse, focusing on the gruelling and often dehumanising process of reporting such incidents. My vision was to craft a memory-based film, where fragmented scenes mirror the painful process of reconstructing trauma. The story also highlights systemic failures that retraumatise survivors and examines the blurred boundaries young people face in the entertainment industry.
Marloo stands as a raw and honest exploration of trauma and resilience, sparking much-needed conversations about these difficult and often overlooked experiences.
