From the Judges, on Temple (2026)
From the Judges, on Temple
Framed with striking symmetry and vibrant colour, this short holds a tender, finely balanced story of love set against predatory greed. The direction moves with understated confidence, and the writing threads themes of faith, family, and fading memory into dialogue that feels utterly natural.
From the Judges, on The Damned Thing (2026)
From the Judges, on The Damned Thing
Costume and production design pull the viewer into an eerie period world, and the direction lets a strange mystery unfold piece by piece. Poetic writing, grounded performances, subtle visual effects and an original score keep the atmosphere alive from first frame to last.
