The Riven
2014, English. Directed by Michael Fredianelli.
College freshman Selena Sutter (Samantha Koerner) gets more than she bargains for when her new roommate Amy (Jess Chanliau) unwillingly drags her to a raucous frat party. Left to her own devices, Selena ends up shattered by a vicious attack and is left to finish her academic year with a crippling affliction and little hope. With the help of an intuitive science professor, she begins to heal and open her heart to an unexpected romance with a friendly teacher's assistant (Josiah Frampton), who may be hiding a secret from her. But struggling with a shaky past and the abrupt return of her assailant, Selena's new questionable affair may only contribute to her downfall.
