Huge thanks to every single person on this list who believed in my ridiculous script and idea for this music video - I’m beyond grateful. We did it, one year later it’s finally out in the big old world. It’s scary putting your imagination out there, but fuck me is it satisfying. I’m really rather proud of this.

I’m never really one for sentimental posts. But this one means a lot. My debut short Overdrive is finally out online. It’s been a labour of love. 

About seven years ago I went on a journey to understand my relationship to my hormones better. My premenstrual symptoms felt significantly more acute compared to most of my friends, and were oftentimes mentally debilitating. So I did what I do best – I researched.

When I first learned about PMDD, it was a lightbulb moment. A lot of the symptoms aligned with my experience more than regular PMS. I felt that I swung between both of these conditions and felt so frustrated by the lack of awareness, and research surrounding them both, not to mention the stigma – my GOD the stigma! The fact that some women are out there suffering so deeply fuelled me to make something about it. I followed my gut and the more I leaned into the emotional turmoil I was experiencing, this visual metaphor came out. Fast forward to 2022, I wrote Overdrive.

I want to take a moment to thank absolutely everyone involved who willingly jumped on this wild ride with me, stunts, action, body doubles, blood… This short was not for the faint hearted. You are incredible. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you. 

I’m so proud of this film. And really hope it can live a life online that some people out there can connect with. Feeling at war with yourself is universal and whether you menstruate or not, we all know someone who does.

// Premiere // "I hadn’t connected with how menstruation had been portrayed in pop-culture. It didn’t resonate with me. I wanted to see something intense, messy, visceral and something that packed a punch (or two)."

@abbyow talks to DN about her motivation to create a brutally honest pedal to the metal depiction of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) in high octane short 'Overdrive'.

Watch it & read the full interview over on DN ⏯️
