If you’re an actor whose suitcase spends very little time tucked under a bed or stored in a closet, then you’re probably doing OK.“My dad jokes about it all the time when he calls me.

I love shooting this way — far from home.
Being 16,000-plus kilometres away from home means an immersive experience for Canning and the other non-locals on this movie. She says she and the rest of the cast eat together and play together. They even went on safari together. “Her as a person has really influenced me over the years. We talk about writing and directing,” said Canning. “I think she has been very influential in terms of how I think about being a woman in this industry, absolutely. I hadn’t thought about feminism in film until I had worked on her on that first film. I have carried that around for the last decade, honestly.”
In Level 16 Canning plays Miss Brixill, the evil den mother of sorts who carries out the wishes of the even-more-evil and deranged Dr. Miro . Brixill is as severe as her bottle-blond hair and tightly tailored suits. Level 16’s 1960s, Soviet-style, apartment-block-grey, dingy, minimal interiors is dystopia 101. The teenage girls have been raised in this place and their days are filled with mantras about being subservient and “clean.” Yes, this is some Handmaid’s Tale stuff here.
