“The Things I Want to Do to You” explores “rage, revenge, trauma and the complexities of seeking justice,” according to its official synopsis. The short film “follows a woman navigating the aftermath of a deeply personal violation. Through a series of increasingly provocative fantasies, she confronts the things she wishes she could do to the man responsible. Blurring the lines between imagination and reality, the film examines the anger women are often forced to carry in silence and what happens when that anger finally demands to be heard.”

“I’ve always been fascinated by the things we think but never say out loud, particularly when we’ve been wronged,” Dhillon said in a statement. “The anger, the grief, the fantasies of revenge and the conversations we have in our heads that will never happen in real life. I think so many women carry the weight of injustice, often in silence. I wanted to explore that space between what we feel, what we imagine and what we actually do. The darker, sometimes outrageous, places our minds can go when we feel powerless. At its heart, this film is about giving a voice to those unspoken emotions and exploring what it means to carry something you never asked for.”

“The Things I Want to Do to You” is currently filming in the U.K., with other cast members including Arabella Coombes, Eisa Latif and Saher Shah.

Dhillon added, “To be bringing this story to life alongside Lynette Linton, Golda Rosheuvel and such an incredible team is something I’m immensely proud of. As the first production from my company, Hazy Plant Pictures, it feels particularly special, and I couldn’t be more excited for this to mark the beginning of our journey.”
