A MICRO MOVIE IN A TINY HAUNTED HOUSE
Dank and crumbling corridors provide the perfect race track for a carefree
little soul in a baby cot. But as it trundles along merrily destroying the
wallpaper, ominous sounds begin to seep from the dusty rooms and unwelcome
memories are slowly reborn.
Perhaps an evil spirit unleashed or maybe just a long forgotten tantrum?
It's hard to say
I can’t remember..
Nostalgia can play nasty tricks
The brief was simple.
You can do anything you want but don't use words..
Filmed with
iPhone, B&W camcorder, some old dolls house furniture,
two low energy light bulbs and a very friendly fruit fly !
