Set in South London, Pretty Red Dress follows a family navigating change after Travis returns home from prison. His partner Candice dreams of playing Tina Turner in a West End musical, and a sparkling red dress purchased for her audition unexpectedly becomes a catalyst for revelation and tension within the household. As the film explores masculinity, identity and desire, the characters are forced to confront secrets and unspoken expectations. Infused with humour, tenderness and the music of Tina Turner, Dionne Edwards’ debut feature offers a nuanced portrait of a Black British family in transition.
