BSEG Invests in Bold, Female-Led Story from Acclaimed Rising Talent Louisa Connolly-Burnham
Big Screen Entertainment (OTC: BSEG), bigscreenentgroup.com, has announced its investment in The Intimacy Coordinator, a striking new short film recently spotlighted in Variety.
BSEG Chief Executive Kimberley Kates will serve as Executive Producer on the project, which begins shooting shortly. The film dives into the shadowy world of intimacy coordination on film sets, reimagined through a tense and unsettling psychological thriller filled with unexpected twists.
Leading the project is multi-hyphenate Louisa Connolly-Burnham, who wrote, directed, and stars in the film. Her previous short, Sister Wives, was longlisted for both the Academy Awards and BAFTA Film Awards, winning widespread critical acclaim and establishing her as one of the UK's most compelling new filmmakers. BSEG's Chief Operating Officer Sandro Monetti also served as an executive producer on Sister Wives, continuing a successful collaboration.
Joining Connolly-Burnham on screen are:
-
Kieron Moore (Masters of the Air, Sex Education)
-
Alexander Arnold (Yesterday)
-
Sophie Simnett (Twist)
"Louisa is an extraordinary emerging filmmaker with a fearless voice," said Kimberley Kates. "Her work blends originality with commercial appeal — exactly the kind of filmmaker Big Screen is dedicated to supporting. We want to back stories that challenge expectations, thrill audiences, and deliver bold new voices with a strong point of view."
"I'm beyond excited to bring this story to life with such a phenomenal cast and crew," said Louisa Connolly-Burnham. "The Intimacy Coordinator is bold, darkly funny, and deeply human. I'm grateful to be collaborating with artists who are not only wildly talented but also brave enough to explore the complex and often unseen aspects of our industry."
