Here is a collection of five long-form narrative shorts (19-54 min each) from around the world.
EXIT: With their deadline approaching fast, a small team of construction workers isn't too happy to find an anomaly in the house they're renovating. Especially one that breaks the laws of physics. But maybe there’s something to be gained from this? Like a finder's fee…Or nightmare fuel.
MACABRE NIGHT: It's nighttime. During a transfer, maximum security inmates escape and heads for a small town. The authorities call on citizens to assist in the capture of the fugitives - by any means necessary - offering a large cash reward. Amid the chaos that ensues, a young couple in crisis tries to stay alive.
ALLODIUM: Anna was sent away at the age of ten by her father after her mother apparently left them. Now, twenty years later she is going back to the family farm after she learns her father has killed himself. She is hoping to find answers to why this happened, why she was sent away, and why her mother left, never to be heard of again. Getting close to what happened, strange things starts occurring in the house, and maybe the past is best left alone.
LANDGRAVES: A young journalist goes into the deep wood to interview the heavy-metal duo "Landgraves", who records an album for the first time since a murder imprisonment. His curiosity pushes him to follow the band deep in the forest, as a snowstorm arises.
THE BUREAU: In a future dystopia, administration is left to AI. Following a recalculation of his family budget, Jules has to separate from one of his children. To challenge this decision, he will have to go to the Bureau, the administrative management center.
