The Rapping

Short experimental film about a man relaxing reading a horror book. Unknown to him, his home is invaded by an invisible entity. Curiously he begins to hear curious sounds....
Also, some of the sounds may sound a bit weird to our brave protagonist because they are actually from the NASA InSight Mars lander.
Two other trailers for it:

Director Statement

We wanted to try something subdued in this film. Where smaller is bigger rather than bigger is always better.
