BOSTON — Sssh.com’s Angie Rowntree announced today that her erotic thriller “Mirror Game” has taken home six awards at the mainstream IndieX Film Fest, including her award for "Best Director" and "Outstanding Achievement in the Mystery Short" category.
Other wins for “Mirror Game” acknowledged the film’s two leads, June Ann and Rob Gadling, who won "Best Acting Duo," and "Best Original Score" by composer Roland Moralis.
The film also took home awards for "Best Production Design" and "Best Set Design."
“It’s a huge honor to win a 'Best Director' award at IndieX and I’m equally delighted to have the outstanding work by June Ann, Rob Gadling, Roland Moralis and everyone who contributed to the design elements recognized as well,” Rowntree said. “We all worked extremely hard to bring this story to life and it’s just affirming and rewarding to have that work acknowledged and received so well.”
June Ann said it was “deeply gratifying” to receive the award for "Best Acting Duo," adding that she knew she and Gadling had “created something special” with their on-screen chemistry.
“Getting to bring the character of Giselle to life was truly a gift,” June Ann said. “I’m so honored to be awarded best acting duo. To be acknowledged for not only your own performance but also your interaction with your co-star really speaks to the easy chemistry we enjoyed.”
IndieX Film Festival is an L.A.-based international film festival, but the event’s in-person screenings are currently on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The festival has said that screenings will be held again once health and safety conditions permit.
