About Double Blind
In Double Blind, volunteers join a cutting edge medical trial in a secluded research complex. When the experiment misfires, the participants discover a deadly rule: drifting off means death. With every moment of rest bringing danger, they scramble to stay awake while containment alarms howl and the building's systems misbehave. Friction grows as fear, fatigue, and suspicion take hold, turning crowded corridors into traps of paranoia. Claire, the determined medic, teams with Dr. Burke and others to understand what went wrong and to find a way out before sleep claims them all. Outside forces cut off communication and the facility becomes a maze of sealed doors, flickering lights, and whispered theories about who is behind the trial.
Directed by Ian Hunt Duffy, Double Blind draws on an original screenplay by Darach McGarrigle. The tightly wound setup blends horror with science fiction and is led by Millie Brady as Claire alongside Pollyanna McIntosh, Akshay Kumar, Diarmuid Noyes, and Brenock O'Connor.
