Director Statement

Creek is a campy Aussie day-horror short, shot in Guwa-Koa country in the Australian outback. It dramatises the absurd consequences of environmental pollution, and how our climate actions could upset our natural waterways and lead to its brutality against humans; demonic possession. I love experimenting with genre film; it always allows us to take a project to extreme heights, even with a student budget.
