Art has always been a gift for Catherine, her talent is plain to see but she’s always lived in the shadow of her father – a famous artist who’s recently passed. After years of looking after her father’s affairs and recently having broken up with her partner, Catherine finds herself unable to occupy her mind and turns to her best friend, Valerie, for support.
Valerie suggests the pair embark on a trip to Valerie’s family’s lake house to find some refuge from their day to day lives. Catherine feels this would be a good solution to her current state of mind; a place to paint with her friend away from the world.
However, once in the woods Catherine soon finds herself in a mentally fragile state. Valerie has found a distraction with a local man called Rich and Catherine, herself is constantly faced by reminders of her ex-boyfriend James (who had visited the lake the year prior).
Spiraling out of control Catherine soon becomes unstable, all her relationships seemingly on the rocks, jealousy fills her mind.
Queen Of Earth was written and directed by Alex Ross Perry who also wrote and directed Listen Up, Philip starring Jason Schwartzman.
