Saving Sophia (2002) - Short Film (Creepy/Psychological)

A dark psychological drama shot in December 2002 in Stoke-on-Trent, England.

One of the first films I directed during my course at university. It was also the first of a series of work involving psychological disorders as a key plot element.

Spoiler:
For Saving Sophia, the plot revolves around a woman suffering from Paranoid Schizophrenia.

That was very interesting. Quite Lynch-esque! Nice work :)

Interesting little piece for uni. Professionally done. I'm glad you didn't jump on the band wagon to make people with mental illnesses look like something to be feared or like a crazed killer. Keep up the work.

This one cuts right to the bone. Very creepy again. Do I see a pattern? :)

Well, this is yet another example of the work of a master. It blows away all other shorts in its genre. Music, lighting, setup... it all adds up to make one really good movie.
