“Following her critically acclaimed first feature Saint Maud, Rose Glass returns with a bombastic, larger-than-life sophomore effort. An off-the-wall, rambunctious lesbian love story crashes into a family drama of the darkest ilk in this muscular thriller. As a small-town gym and a ravine just outside city limits become the playground for all flavors of mischief and mayhem, a heightened Americana sensibility and Glass’ deliciously distinctive, bold style create a world that is at once familiar and entirely fresh. Starring Kristen Stewart (Personal Shopper, Spencer) and Katy O’Brian, Love Lies Bleeding is somehow as sweetly romantic as it is doggedly hedonistic. With a vaulting imagination and its roots in deeply human places, this film packs a gut punch unlike any other.” -Sundance Film Festival
