7 Keys – Watch the teaser for the twisted love story that explores the unseen London

Jeva Films and 4 8 Fourteen Films are thrilled to share the first teaser and poster for the upcoming thriller, 7 Keys. Officially Selected for this years Pigeon Shrine FrightFest and screening through their ‘First Blood’ strand, the film will celebrate its UK Premiere on 24th August at the iconic horror festival.

Written and directed by Joy Wilkinson, the film stars Emma McDonald (Moonhaven & The Serpent Queen) and Billy Postlethwaite (SILO & The Winter King). This is not the first time the couple have shared lead roles, having both starred in Paul Hart’s adaptation of Macbeth in 2019 as well as the short horror film, The Everlasting Club, also directed by Wilkinson. This is Wilkinson’s feature debut, which had its World Premiere at SXSW in March, and builds on her successful writing career for stage and screen, including Doctor WhoLockwood & Co, and the upcoming Channel 4 thriller Suspect.

When her date lets her down, single mother Lena meets lost soul Daniel and there’s an instant connection, especially when she learns that he’s kept the keys to all the places he’s ever lived. Lena doesn’t want to go home. She wants to run away from the troubles of her real life and recapture all the fun she’s missed out on, using Daniel’s keys to go on the ultimate tour of London, a wild weekend getting to know each other intimately in other people’s homes. In each home, they peel back another layer of each other’s identities and this thrilling game gets deeper. It seems like they’re soulmates, made to save each other, until reality kicks in and dark secrets are unlocked. Will either of them survive the weekend and own the seventh key?

From tiny apartments to riverside penthouses, 7 KEYS is a toxic romance condensed into one weekend. A twisted love story that explores the unseen London, the thrilling allure and the dark underbelly of life in a modern city where young people struggle to find their place – and sometimes struggle to survive.

“I’m thrilled that 7 KEYS will have its UK Premiere at Frightfest. I’m a huge fan of the festival and found a lot of inspiration there, so to have my feature debut in its First Blood strand is beyond my wildest dreams – and my dreams can get pretty wild, as the film proves! I can’t wait to watch it with the Frightfest crowd, especially in this extra special 25th anniversary year.” said Joy Wilkinson, Director and Writer.
