🧠A Call to Be Part of Something Bigger
We’re currently seeking like-minded producing partners, supporters, investors, and industry allies to help bring Regret to the screen.
This is not just a short film. It’s an opportunity to be associated with a legacy of emotionally intelligent, socially resonant cinema, a film that has already proven its artistic value and continues to touch hearts across borders.
If you believe in meaningful storytelling, and want to be part of a creative journey that matters, we would love to hear from you.
"If this story reaches even one person in time to mend a fractured bond, it will have done its job. That’s my hope. And I have no regrets in stating such lofty ideals."
— Yvonne Coughlan, Writer & Director

🎬 Regret
A powerful short film about love, loss, and the legacy of forgiveness.
Written by Yvonne Coughlan | Based on an idea by Maurice Supple
What if your last words weren’t enough?
Regret tells the story of Tom, a man recovering from alcoholism, who longs to make amends with his estranged son, Caleb. But the past lingers. And forgiveness doesn’t always arrive in time.
This is a film about what goes unsaid. About the pain we inherit. And about the fragile, often too-late, attempt to heal what’s been broken.
At its core, Regret is a deeply personal exploration of grief, reconciliation, and the complicated bonds between parents and children. It was written in the aftermath of losing our own parents, my father and Maurice's mother, and shaped by conversations between us, as we both tried to make sense of that seismic, human experience.
🎖️ An Award-Winning Script with Global Recognition
Regret has already been honoured with:
Best Unproduced Short Script at six international film festivals, including 🏆 Golden Sparrow (Tamil Nadu), 🏆 Crown Wood (West Bengal), Sydney Indie Short Festival.🏆 Hong Kong Indie Film Festival
Special Jury Awards at Indo-French International and Gona Film Festivals

This recognition has affirmed what I always felt writing this: that this story is universal, and that its emotional message is urgently needed.
