Alexandra Essoe’s “The Carnal Soul” to Make World Premiere at Oscar Qualifying LA Short’s International Film Festival

“The Carnal Soul,” starring Bob Gunton, Danno Hanks, Alexandra Essoe, and Ryan Kibby, will make its world premiere at the Oscar-qualifying LA Shorts International Film Festival on Sunday, July 21st, at 3:15 p.m. at the Regal Cinema at LA Live. The riveting dark comedy/drama is the directorial debut of Essoe, who has starred in the TV series MIDNIGHT MASS, THE HAUNTING OF BLY MANOR, and the feature THE POPE’S EXORCIST.

Written and directed by Essoe and produced by Alexis Iacono and Essoe, The Carnal Soul tells the story of Mort (Bob Gunton), who is in the winter of his life and can no longer live with the weight of his regrets. Every day is torture, living with an old betrayal. Today he sets out to make amends with his long-time rival, David. Can he atone for his mistakes before it’s too late?

“I wish I had some sort of a producer dramatic war story… but truth be told. From cast to crew. From beginning to end. From pre-production, being on set, to post. It was organic magic,” says Iacono.
