G.i.B The Girl In Between Watch the trailer

A bipolar mythology by Z Tennyson

She has been sixteen for 865 years.

YOUNG. ANCIENT. NUMB. RECKLESS.

In the process of bringing Olga back to life, her father shattered her soul. Half of it lives inside her body, in the world of the living. The rest is stuck in the Shadowlands, or the ‘In-Between’.

The Girl In Between (G i B)

A coming-of-age tale, frozen in time.

The Girl In Between (G i B) is the story of a bipolar teenage girl in search of her Self.

Olga is not a bogeyman. She’s nothing like a carnage beast, a needy construct, or a mindless slasher. She’s the embodiment of adolescence’s most extreme weathers.
“To be bipolar is to be constantly pulled between two different worlds while trying to hold on for dear life to your identity.”
Z Tennyson, creator G i B was inspired by my bipolar mother and my formative years.

The Girl In Between injects new life into Mary Shelley’s creature in the same way Anne Rice injected new life into Bram Stoker’s Dracula. It is impossible to relate to Dracula but addictive to relate to vampire Lestat. Olga is a different breed of Construct, layered for a generation that is dismantling the emotional constructs it was handed. She is for whoever can’t see themselves in “born sexy yesterday” Bella Baxter.

Soundscape

Music is the driving engine.

Visceral, haunting, and ‘90s melancholic. The soundscape is sadcore reflective, featuring powerful female leads and spanning many eras, exactly like Olga.
