Film Work

The transition from stage to film has been seamless for Debra.  She was recently cast as the lead character Polly for the science fiction film, "The Holdout“. The Holdout is a bittersweet story about a hopeful romantic who repeats the same patterns of behaviour over several lifetimes, in attempts to find his true love. Debra plays the role of an otherworldly guardian who follows the holdout from one lifetime to the next in an attempt to guide his destiny.  She has subsequently been cast in “Parallel” as the scientist mother of the main character in a futuristic world and was cast as one of the leads in the short film “Curveball” which was been selected for the @cinefestsudburyiff 2024.

“The Holdout” is “Wonderful” ... performances of Debra Scott and Beatrice Campbell are fabulous.
