The Shortround: The Sweet Hand of the White Rose (Trailer)

Davide Melini (director of the short: The Puzzle) dropped me a line to tell me that the teaser and trailer are now live for his new short "The Sweet Hand of the White Rose".

Here is the plot:

"How many times have you had a bad day? How many times have you thought you would run away from everyone and everything? That is exactly what happens to Mark. In order to forget about a heated discussion with his girlfriend, he decides to get in the car and go far away. But a little mistake will change his reality forever...".

A few facts: It's a 16 min short and it was shot all over Spain.

Check out the teaser and the trailer below.

The Shortround: The Puzzle

[Well I'm going to start another little on and off segment on the jaded viewer called The Shortround. Basically the premise is this. If you see a short around the interwebs, tell me about it and I'll post it up. Let's keep the indie horror and indie interweb scene going!]

"There is always a piece in the puzzle of your life that does not fit"

It's another round of The Shortround. From the jaded viewer inbox comes this hell of a little short. And I do mean short. It's only 4:49.

This one is brought to us by Davide Melini, an Italian screenwriter and director.

the jaded viewer says: The Puzzle compacts alot of eerieness in it's 4 min+ runtime. It goes into some sort of David Lynch-ian motif and ends with a bang (wink). Kudos to Melin as the sound, the builtup tension and the twizzler twist has a flair for the Argento or even possibly some M. Night. Good, decent short.
