Erasing Eden is a 2016 independent drama film directed by Beth Dewey. The film stars Breeda Wool as a young woman named Eden, who sabotages her wedding day, and makes a life-changing journey in order to regain her identity and independence, leading her down a dark and self-destructive path.

Production

Erasing Eden was shot over the course of one year. Director Beth Dewey worked closely with screenplay writer Justo Diaz, where they constructed the story in a way which was stripped down so that the leading character was left to herself in order to tell her story, as opposed to simplifying the plot having it run at a faster pace.

The film was shot on a minimal budget using a Canon EOS 5D Mark III, while lighting was supplied by a simple household clip light. During the filming, people were mistaken and believed that the crew were photographing a wedding. Dewey mentioned that "it was liberating to roam around with nothing but a bounce board and a DSLR camera."

The story was written so that the character of Eden has virtually no dialogue during the film and we become acutely aware of Eden’s behaviors and reactions. Post production was a much bigger challenge as it was obvious that the story was difficult to follow without dialogue, therefore, Eden's messages to herself were added so that we can get inside her head.
