"a film isn’t finished until its seen"

Amy Neil delivers a hauntingly beautiful film in Icicle Melt in which we watch a couple dance and play in the snow neither realising that they won’t be together in the morning.

Following her success with her previous short films Can’t Stop Breathing (2004), Ma Boy (2006) as well as Icicle Melt, Amy has gone on to direct episodes of the successful Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks and she is currently directing an as yet untitled feature film with Warp Films.

Icicle Melt has been honored as the Winner of the Grand Prix at the Tabor Film Festival, as well as receaving screenings at The London International Film Festival and becoming a finalist in the TCM Short Film Award (2006).
