Bloody Mess

When filmmaker Megan Wennberg’s period went nuts, she thought her Uterus was out for revenge because she was almost 40 and hadn’t given it a baby. But it turned out she had fibroids. Bloody Mess is a short, personal, animated documentary following Megan and her Uterus (voiced by actor Susan Kent) on their harrowing but darkly funny journey through the medical system to try and stop the bleeding.

Filmmaker Notes:

Bloody Mess is my first animation and I’m so grateful it will be screening at the Rocky Mountain Women’s Film Festival. I never thought having fibroids could turn into something so positive, but I’m really grateful for the reception it has been getting. I hope your audience enjoys it! @bloodymessfilm
