Order of the Hanged- writer & director
Cloven Prints- writer
This is a ghost story, but it's really an exploration of how far grief and guilt can push a person. Our protagonist is willing to give anything to make things right for her dead friend, and that ultimately costs her life- but in the end, it was her choice to join her dead friend, and her redemption. I tried to subvert the expectations of a typical ghost story short, in that the viewer is expecting a cheap jump scare at the end, and instead gets an emotional catharsis and head trip.
