This screenplay process gave Lindsay more insight into the filming industry and the need to support women behind the lens. Lindsay also produced a horror movie titled Severed, an entirely student-driven production that became a semi-finalist at the Vancouver Film Festival awards. Listen in to hear how Lindsay enjoys her favorite decade in life and how she turned her life experience into a screenplay.
