After viewing a strangely familiar video nasty, Enid, a film censor, sets out to solve the past mystery of her sister's disappearance, embarking on a quest that dissolves the line between fiction and reality.
"Censor is a fascinating horror film about the censorship of horror films themselves, with an intriguing twist. Set in 1985—amid the controversy of the UK's "video nasties"—the story follows a strict censor at the British Board of Film Classification, who prides herself on her reputation for mutilating horror productions in the name of protecting the public. However, when she is asked to review a peculiar film, she begins to lose control of her reality as she suspects the lead actress is her sister, who disappeared years ago. On a superficial level, this film offers intrigue, psychological horror, and 80s nostalgia, but it also reflects on the act of editing and censoring, something we do both with films and with memory."
