Really good

Warning: Spoilers
A University of Southern California project directed by McKenzi Vanderberg and written by Maurizio Ledezma, this unique short is about Stefani (Dia Frampton), a young woman who is haunted by the death of a loved one. She hopes that her childhood hobby of communicating in Morse code can help them speak, but the void of death perhaps is not one to speak with. This short looks fabulous and tells a tight and terse story quite well, even having plenty of suspense along with an emotional punch. Well done. I saw this at the Chattanooga Film Festival and was really astounded with how beyond a student film it looks.

acceptance
Kirpianuscus24 July 2023
Far to be a horror, it is a beautiful film about acceptance. In some measure, about self acceptance after the death of a beloved friend. The way to comunicate in childhood becomes, after a form of late symbolic good bye, source of tension, fear and doubts. In basement, the message offered by a phone manages this terrible emotions in classic exercise of manipulation.

Exactly this is the source of beauty of this short film about a young woman looking for fair form to reconcilate with the past.

The result, not exactly the thrill, who represents only a simple tool, but the joy of freedom after not a very easy way.
