SÈT LAM Short Film Competition

SÈT LAM

Description

Screens as part of SHORTS PROGRAM: LIVE ACTION 2

In the midst of a trance ritual, a young girl is paralyzed by fear, scared her loved ones may be hurt or disappear. It is then that her grandmother tells her the strange tale of Edwardo, the first one of his kin to have seen and fought death. The child is captivated, feeling there is a reason her grandmother is recounting this tale.
