Following the success of his award-winning debut short George, writer-director Gregg Chilingirian returns with Virtue – a haunting and provocative story that examines faith, obsession, and the devastating impact of untreated trauma.
Exploring the complicated depths of mental illness, VIRTUE unravels the unassuming figure of 55-year-old David as his actions diverge from the word of God.
Starring Tim Plester (After Life, Bohemian Rhapsody), Virtue offers a powerful exploration of morality and the human psyche. Plester’s performance has been praised as “a tour de force… exuding both the unsettling creepiness and heartbreaking fragility of the character.”
Developed in collaboration with Action Against Stalking, the film handles its sensitive subject matter with care and authenticity, shedding light on the psychological complexities behind stalking and the blurred lines between devotion and delusion.
Shot on 35mm film and selected for Kodak’s iconic Shot on Film campaign, Virtue is a visually striking and emotionally resonant work of cinema.
