Anecdotes
Piranha costume department was a treasure trove of primary colors, dressing all the actors and performers in multicolors that contrasted with one another, making the sets extremely colorful. The primary reason was to create a deep contrast effect from a rich color palette, that would create a vibrant black and white film later on, with infant potential for dynamic grading in post-production.

Intriguing and visually stunning short film

From the opening skyscraper shots of London, you can get a sense that PIRANHA is a short film worthy of your attention.

With the bold use of shooting black and white, director Elcid Asaei directs confidently with a visual flare that separates this film from most others that you'll find on the festival circuit.

The film builds an eerie sense of dread throughout it's short running time, with our main character being chased through the deserted city streets.

With an industrial sound design and most of the film being completely silent, one is reminded of Lynch's Eraserhead. Strong praise indeed, but praise that is worthy.

Looking forward to what this young filmmaker has to offer in the future.
