The Spectre's Keeper
In 1933 Old Québec, a young socialite narrowly survives a near collision after acquiring a mysterious mahogany chest haunted by the spectre of a disgraced tycoon with a shadowy past. Together with her secret sapphic lover, she investigates decades-old mystery surrounding his suspicious death in a car accident. Their search unravels a web of deception and long-buried secrets that threatens to shake the powerful family her lover belongs to–the very family that inherited the spectre’s fortune.

Natasha Zaman is an emerging Bangladeshi filmmaker with a background in writing, editing, and visual art. Her work centres on psychologically complex female characters and blends grounded emotion with surreal, atmospheric world-building.

Accurate representation of the human race in pop culture is very important to me because it affects every one of us. I want social equality and justice for the future generations. I am a future filmmaker working on building a career in cinema and television. I aim to generate art that will connect with human beings to promote intersectionality and undifferentiated unity.
