Synopsis - ‘Smile, Love’, is a short period piece thriller about 18 year old Allison and her older cousin Jodi (26), two girls venturing into the adult world for a girls night out. Set in the Australian summertime of 1979, in the suburbs of Brisbane. The two friends go out to a bar in hope of a fun time with a few drinks and some billiards. Their night is turned upside down when an overly friendly man named Mark (29) gets too close. The girls head to the bathroom and Mark follows closely behind, entering right before they can close the door. Moments later, the door reopens and the girls stumble out. Their hair and makeup ruffled and smudged. A figure slumped on the floor behind them. As they exit, Mark’s limp body is revealed, with a smiley face mask and a sign taped to his chest. Reading the words: ‘Give us a smile, love.’
