The film is set to premiere on Tuesday at the Indy Shorts Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tGrant, best known for her acting roles in <em>Stardust<\/em>, <em>Lark Rise to Candleford<\/em> and <em>Indian Summers<\/em>, told <em>The Hollywood Reporter <\/em>that her desire to start making film came from a mixture of timing and a new sense of urgency. \u201cI\u2019ve wanted to make my own work for a while now and, like many actors, had a feature script I\u2019d been quietly writing for a couple of years, but there was always enough acting work not to focus exclusively on writing, and I was ambivalent about what I would write about. It was COVID that changed that; firstly because it cleared time to focus on generating new work and, secondly, because it coincided with my personal struggles with IVF and its mental toll. As a way to hold on to my sanity,\u00a0I ended up writing a 30,000-word diary documenting the rollercoaster of grappling with my infertility and transcribing the arguments my husband and I were having, which felt very specific to the process and uniquely gendered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tShe continued about her personal experience influencing the process: \u201cIt was only as\u00a0the world opened up again, and I was able to reconnect with more women and couples, that it became clear that many elements of my mental anguish were remarkably universal. My shame around not being able to have a child and what that meant was normal; my partner\u2019s difficulty salving that particular wound for me was perhaps predictable, and the intense sense of dissociation that permeated that period was again part of the experience for many.\u00a0Like a lot of women, I did not share the experience with my close friends and family and suddenly felt there was a real need to shed some light on what can be the profound interpersonal effects of this remarkably successful, albeit oft-harrowing, process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=3901\">Donald Trump Booed at World Cup Final<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<em>The Two Week Wait <\/em>is a proof of concept for a feature-length narrative <em>Baby Mine<\/em>, slated for 2027, she added. Ings and Brown Findlay are also attached, with Amy Hubbard on board as casting director.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIngs added: \u201cOlivia\u00a0is a singular new voice in British filmmaking, with a lot to say on some fairly universal themes affecting many women. Getting to work with her, Nanu Segal and Jessica Brown Findlay on this beautiful film was an embarrassment of creative riches. You haven\u2019t heard the last of\u00a0Olivia\u00a0Grant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNight describes the script as \u201cso instantly unique, compelling and beautiful.\u201d She said: \u201c[It] deals with the choices we make, the relationships we foster, and people seeking love and connection as they journey together through life\u2019s struggles.
