Alaskan filmmaker Zoe Quist’s sci-fi comedy Glitched will close the 25th Silver Anniversary edition of the Anchorage International Film Festival on Sunday, December 14, 2025.
Raised in the frozen wilds outside Fairbanks and still calling Alaska home, filmmaker Zoe Quist (Raw Cut, Mining for Ruby) brings her latest feature back to the state for its Alaska premiere following its U.S. Premiere at the La Femme International Film Festival, where Quist won Best Feature Director.

Starring Mischa Barton (The O.C.), Abigail O’Regan (Spellbound), Donal Brophy (Sleep No More), Jack McEvoy (Vikings), Elijah Rowen (Vikings), and John Connors (Crazy Love, Re-Creation by Jim Sheridan), Glitched follows a pair of ambitious twins who turn their grandmother’s crumbling castle into a virtual-reality playground, only to accidentally open a supernatural portal. Cue one debonair 18th-century ghost, a race against time, and a castle full of unlikely heroes trying not to get stuck in the afterlife. What happens when a VR game unleashes a real ghost?
Glitched is written by Steve Grabowsky (Los Angeles) and produced by Maria O’Neill, p.g.a. (The Black Guelph), Susan Wright, p.g.a., and Zoe Quist.
Celebrating 25 years, the Anchorage International Film Festival (AIFF) runs December 5 – 14, 2025,
