A Woman Scorned is a 2025 British action film directed by Becca Hirani and Michael Hoad, starring Chi Lewis-Parry and Megan Purvis.

What is A Woman Scorned about?
Jas and her sister Laura head to a remote rural cabin for a peaceful family break, far from the pressures of everyday life. Their retreat is shattered when a pack of local men descends on them with menace and violence. Laura does not survive the assault, and Jas is left to find her sister's body alone in the cabin. Shattered by grief yet ignited by a fierce, consuming rage, Jas refuses to wait for justice to arrive on its own terms. She begins methodically tracking down every member of the group, armed with nothing but her fury and her will to see them answer for what they have done. The film builds its tension through close-quarters confrontations, stripping away any safety net until Jas stands as the sole reckoning her sister will ever receive.
Cast & crew
The film is co-directed by Becca Hirani and Michael Hoad, with Hoad also appearing on screen. Chi Lewis-Parry and Megan Purvis lead the cast as the two sisters at the heart of the story, supported by Darrell Griggs, Hannah Pauley, Andre Pierre, Aaron-Jon North, and Jon Callaway among the ensemble of antagonists and witnesses who populate this tense rural landscape.
Context & significance
Revenge thrillers built around a woman's survival and retribution have long held a devoted following among Persian-speaking audiences worldwide. Films in this vein — where a protagonist is pushed to the absolute edge before fighting back — resonate deeply with diaspora viewers who appreciate morally driven, emotionally charged action that does not require cultural translation. A Woman Scorned arrives on K-Time with both a Persian dub and Persian subtitles, making it immediately accessible regardless of preference. British genre cinema occupying this territory tends to favour grim realism over spectacle, and this 84-minute film delivers exactly that: grounded stakes, minimal plot armour, and consequences that feel earned rather than convenient.
