All that glitters is not gold in Diamond Sky, an unsettling new British psychological thriller where the promise of romance collides with the shadows of crime. Blending a heist film with a fractured love story, it offers a hypnotic descent into fantasy, where the pursuit of wealth and affection proves as dangerous as it is irresistible.
The film marks the directorial debut of Felix Mackenzie, who sets out to craft a story that balances suspense with raw emotion. The cast is led by Amanda Abbington, known for Sherlock and Mr Selfridge, as the grounded mother of Alice. Alice, played by Elena Rivers (Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, F1), is a young woman caught between dreams of fortune and the harsh realities of love, falling for a man whose allure masks something far more complex.
At once a heist thriller, a love story, and a psychological portrait, Diamond Sky explores the perilous pull of desire and the way fantasy can entrap as easily as it enchants. Mackenzie's feature promises tension, beauty, and unease in equal measure, establishing him as a filmmaker to watch. Diamond Sky makes its UK digital debut on 27 October 2025, released by Reel2Reel Films.
