EMULSION tells the story of a dejected salesman who is inadvertently drawn into a dangerous blackmail scheme that forces him to fight for control a life he never thought was worth living. Painting a murky film noir world where no one is exactly as they appear, Emulsion follows Dane Allen as he evolves from an utterly forgettable cog into a potent activist who brings the powers that be to their knees. It is a story of discovery, manipulation and the never-ending struggle between complacency and self-actualization.

Something is very unsettling in Ronny Maze's world. We follow him as he tries to unravel the mystery - and no more plot points can be given because you deserve to see the entire story unfold yourself. This award-winning indie film is a must for anyone who loves unusual Lynchian mysteries. Everything moves very deliberately and with an exquisitely rendered tension. The haunting score is the perfect backdrop to the mystery. Sam Heughan's performance as Ronny is mesmerizing, and he is filmed here beautifully, each line of his chiseled face registering tension and softness at once. David Ajala is wonderful as a restaurant owner who befriends Ronny. Emulsion is the kind of movie that makes indie cinema so rich and rewarding. It will haunt you for a long time. And as in all my favorite movies, you will definitely need to watch it twice and see what you missed (or didn't realize you missed) the first time around.

I watched the film for the first time recently after buying the Blu Ray edition. First off, the cinematography is beautiful. Not only that, the camera catches every nuance of Sam Heughan's portrayal of the tormented character Ronny Maze. Ronny has lost his wife, Isabella, in mysterious circumstances. His old-fashioned mode of dress and ancient car give Ronny the appearance of being a man out of step with time as well as events which unfold. It's a film which is leisurely paced until the final denouement, which will have the viewer open mouthed with shock. Kudos to Suki Singh and Sam Heughan for giving us this masterly short indie film

Absolutely stunning film written & directed by a brilliant man. Emulsions is so beautifully filmed that you leave realizing that you've finally watched a movie worthy of seeing again. I for one found the story line original & the cinematography gorgeous. If you're like me & tired of paying good money to watch another remake of an 80's/90's movie then make a point of taking yourself to see this movie. I went in to this film not knowing what to expect, my only knowledge of it being what was written on IMDb. I was both in-thralled and mesmerized by the film & captivated by the lead Sam Heughan. I would happily pay to see it again & hope that one day it will be available on DVD. Suki Singh is a genius :)

I really enjoyed Emulsion. The film is edited wonderfully so that the plot gradually develops keeping the audience guessing about the circumstances of Isabella's disappearance and Ronny's frame of mind. There are a couple scenes which play out of sequence or are repeated as an extended scene which add to the richness of the story telling. The fact that Ronny is a bit 'lost' in his own world, looks like he has traveled from the 1940/50s and has a strict routine including spending most of his time in an eerily empty concrete car park, adds to the mystery and makes for an intriguing characterThe brilliantly acted characters will keep you guessing and interested, the beautifully shot scenes will keep you engaged.This is British independent film at its best! Don't go expecting a fast paced action thriller, but go and immerse yourself in the world of Emulsion and enjoy the beauty of it.Looking forward to seeing what Suki Singh comes up with next.
