About Gerard Johnson
EIFF: Odyssey screens alongside Sleazy Tiger as part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival. In Odyssey, ruthless real estate agent Natasha, played by Polly Maberly, is prone to lashing out at staff, indulging in drug-fuelled binges, and wildly overselling the stability of her company — until she finds herself in debt to vicious gangsters. Directed by Gerard Johnson, this tightly wound and darkly hilarious thriller is unclassified and restricted to audiences aged 18 and over.
Why see this show?
A tightly wound, darkly comic thriller with a magnetic lead performance. Odyssey does exactly what a good Fringe film screening should — bring something sharp and uncompromising to a venue, paired with a short film to round out the programme.
