ABOUT

This is the third of my UK Film Council Short Films and truly the only short film that I feel accomplished what I set out to do. I had become known as a better writer than a director through my other films and a good writer of dialogue, so I set myself the challenge of making a dialogue-less, cinematic short.

The premise - a father doing everything to protect his (werewolf)daughter, including killing for her, and losing his soul in the process came to me as a very intense dream one night.
