BEYOND THE FOG
A film by Desirée Abeyta
June is determined to protect her daughter from the Fog: an ominous force that comes for young girls at a certain age. But when confronted with echoes of her own encounter, she struggles to suppress fears that her mother's failures will become her own.

“Sometimes, the most overprotective mothers…. were the least protected daughters”
Through the haunting presence of a dense, foreboding fog, this film juxtaposes a mother's urge to shield her daughter from the dangers of nature with her equally fierce determination to safeguard her from societal pressures and objectification. Intricately weaving together the experiences of young girls as they transition into womanhood with the maternal struggle to break free from generational traumas and empower their daughters, Beyond the Fog paints a vivid picture of resilience and hope amidst the challenges of maturing in today’s world.
