Desideratum

This was a uniquely dark and charming short with sharp writing and cleverly executed visuals.

Everybody wants something, and everyone has an exploitable secret in Desideratum. It's dark, small-town sense of humor hits the mark on point with fabulous, dynamic characters.

I actually laughed outright watching the film. The characters are brilliant, interesting, human, hilarious, and the performances give credence to the eclectic ensemble. Purely enjoyable.

Desideratum is also great to look at. Beautifully shot with a gorgeous color pallet and well-placed dramatic visual moments. If you get the chance, watch it on a big screen.
