A graduate of London International Film School, Lex writes feature-length, TV and short scripts in the thriller, crime fiction and sci fi genres (with the occasional action comedy project sneaking into the mix).

This contained crime thriller, set in Los Angeles, is to become Lexia Snowe's feature-length debut as a writer-director in 2018. With a small cast and a claustrophobic plot, THE GIRL OUT has been strategically written for low-budget production, while maintaining strong genre drive and commercial appeal.

This contemporary crime thriller plays on the limitations and subterfuge of eyewitness testimony in its 13-episode investigation into an intricate crime. Twelve witnesses, and one of them is guilty.

Think: 'And Then There Were None' (Agatha Christie) meets Showtime's 'The Affair'.
