SHORTS PROGRAMME ONE: FAMILY VALUES

This programme explores parental responsibilities and abuses, filial resentments and revenges, sibling guilt, and grandmotherly anxiety, in a series of tales that reminds us that blood ties can get tangled… and bloody.

A father strives to provide for his family, in Jorge Sermini’s body horror fairy tale, DAUGHTER, with astonishing practical effects by Steven Kostanski (PSYCHO GOREMAN).

A father and daughter fight for survival in a world on the brink of collapse, in HUNTER, Pavlos Sifaki’s chilling study of dehumanisation.

A young man’s desire for closure becomes the most brutal revenge imaginable, in Javier Méndez Cañada’s grotesque folk horror nightmare, MU.

A confused grandmother begins to suspect there are mysterious invaders in the house, in TIME EATER, Ryan Couldrey’s powerful study of the terrors of dementia.

A phone sex worker finds herself faced with a horrifying moral dilemma in Julia Habner’s deeply uncomfortable and disturbing JEFF.

And a desperate gambler would do anything to get his brother back, in Cameron Voris’s quietly savage WHOLE.
