Saw this gem of a short at the Winter Film Festival NYC in a horror short block.

A woman has someone hiding in her house and slowly due to not too overtly explanatory writing we start to unveil the drama that lays at its core and start to care for its characters without spoiling or being predictable which many movies are these days.

Also very fresh is the non use of flashbacks which would have easily been done in a lesser film. The use of offscreen violence is very Hitchcockian to say the least.

Kudos for make up effects, acting and story, very effective short! I only would have liked to know more about the characters.
