SCREENED at Short and Sweet, London Underground Film Festival.
SHORTLISTED for Shooting People Film of the Month, reviewed by Matthew Barney.

“The sound design creates a provocative uncertainty between a seductiveness and a repulsiveness… The pawing at the waistline in the opening scene, and the sound of cellophane tape in the kitchen sequence are particularly effective. The eye contact that Alice makes with the camera complicates things in a nice way, too. I appreciate your use of transitional spaces (passing around corners and through corridors), as an economic way of creating a more psychological sense of space.”
