Gutsy's productions include L/over, a crossbreed of drama and psychological thriller. It explores how and why coercive control can be the greatest danger in a relationship. What first seems like a love story of the century turns into something horrific. The twisted and distorted love story brings up a question – who will get out of this alive?
L/over was nominated among the seven best concepts at C21 Digital Drama Pitch 2023.
