STRANGE FACE

Project Description

STRANGE FACE is a haunting and suspenseful short film about finding the deepest connections in the strangest ways.

Ten-year-old Ana desperately craves a friend but her rather odd attempts to connect tend to freak other kids out, leaving her perplexed and full of longing. Retreating into the bush for another day of lone exploring she comes upon a strange man, who she soon realizes is intent on drowning a bag full of puppies in the river. Horrified, she battles her fear and confronts the man, saving one of the puppies and unexpectedly finding the companionship she has craved.
