A CRIME ACROSS FOUR LANDSCAPES Short Film Competition

A CRIME ACROSS FOUR LANDSCAPES

Screens as part of SHORTS PROGRAM: AFTER DARK

When a small-town crime goes awry, the evidence is scattered across four picturesque landscapes in the American South — inviting viewers to piece together what happened.

Aidan Weaver is an LA–based writer-director from North Carolina whose films push against the boundaries of form and genre. He graduated from UNC’s School of the Arts with a BFA in Filmmaking. His senior thesis film, SHE FOLLOWS CLOSE BEHIND (2019), was shortlisted for a Student Academy Award®.
