Amy Seimetz (She Dies Tomorrow)

Amy Seimetz’s second feature film, She Dies Tomorrow, is about a young woman named Amy (Kate Lyn Sheil) who holds the inescapable certainty that she will die in one day. When she confides in her friend Jane (Jane Adams), the prophecy begins to spread, igniting a chain reaction of existential dread.

Seimetz knew she wanted to bring her characteristic "dark sense of humor" to the film, and bend genre conventions. That meant shooting it in chunks, and funding it herself.

"I didn't want to have to answer questions about what it was going to be," she says. "I was the only person that I was answering to."

She Dies Tomorrow is now available on demand.
