The Chair centers around a young boy's experience during an infectious outbreak called "the mould", which takes place after the sudden death of his mother - patient zero. The young boy narrates the film, and often talks about his mother's chair, or what other people have had to say about the chair. The cinematography and editing style combined with the sound engineering, make up all the great hall marks of a psychological horror, and it makes for very interesting social commentary on an epidemic nowadays. In particular the scene of the masked children swaying on the school bus is very interesting to see knowing it was nine years ago. I would highly recommend this short film to anyone who has twelve minutes and likes a good ambient thinker, especially in this day and age where the plot has much more relatability.
