“I would love if queer/trans cinema headed in the direction that DIVINE HAMMER proposes… It is uninterested in the accepted language and form of how a queer movie should look or behave.” – Willow Maclay

Two maladapted young women, both part of the same internet gore enthusiast community, formulate a plan to meet in person with the intent that one will kill the other, film the killing, and then sell the cameras that “watched” to unsuspecting customers online in the hopes of spurring on a “new era of death.” Inspired in equal parts by mumblecore, shot-on-video horror, and a deep unease formed by the internet’s mass syndication of violence, Divine Hammer is the debut feature by the M. Sisters, the multimedia duo of Hazel and Mae M.
