I made a few narrative mistakes in this rather shocking short. I was concentrating on the simple and stylistic camerawork more than on the clarity of the story and naively assumed that what I understood on set was being captured in the frame, but on a few occasions this was not the case. There was also a 'no dialogue' rule to the exercise, which at times left the film's soundtrack rather sparse.
