Program Note
Early in the morning, the phone rings, signaling that it is time to offer another sacrifice. Set in the real Welsh region of ‘Bwlch Pen Barras,’ this short film, shot on 35mm film, recreates the atmosphere unique to classic cinema through its attention to detail. Although set in modern times, the film uses the Welsh language and features dragons, which frequently appear in Welsh legends, embodying the essence of folk horror. (Kristin JI)
