(7:15 / Fiction)

Cast: Allen Mechen, Ishbel Nicol, Philip Webster

Mystery and misfortune, in spades. Black comedy horror in the English Lake District, commissioned by UK Film Council for the Digital Shorts scheme. Still considered the most nightmarish Bub shoot yet, which may or may not account for the film's unexpected popularity. BBC Talent 2003 finalist.

Watch the film at BBC Film Network.

Worldwide sales for this title are represented by Network Ireland Television.

A sharply surreal tale of murder, burial and resurrection.
Sight & Sound

A forceful visual style and sense of purpose.
The Times

Perversely enjoyable.
