THRILL ME, KILL ME

19.8. 2020

Dashing heroes, sly villains, gunfights, thrilling chases and dangerously seductive femme fatales. Tension and suspense running high, stretching the nerves to the breaking point. Let yourselves be thrilled in the cinema with our programme of thriller short films that Alfred Hitchcock would have loved to present himself.

BLOOD PULLS GUN (USA)

Director: Ben Briand | Producer: Matt Dooley, David Gross, Serena Paull |
Star: Odessa Young, Josh McConville, Tess Haubrich |

A teenage girl gets a keyhole look into a dangerous and mysterious world when a tattooed stranger checks into her roadside motel.

Morning has Broken (Poland)

The main character, a woman, stabs her husband dead and drowns the daughter. Quietly, no emotions. She goes to bed only to wake up in the morning and discover that their cat is missing - that’s where our movie starts… A short film about alienation, loneliness, losing oneself.

Playing (Czech Republic)

Year: 2019 | Length: 22 min | Live Action |

Teenagers Boris and Hugo have informed the internet that they’ll be committing suicide in one hour. Sixty minutes of wondering whether it’s a joke, provocation, or reality. The clock is ticking, the online voyeurs are growing restless, and Hugo, unlike Boris, is beginning to have doubts. A carefully constructed film about a decision that can’t be changed. Or can it?

During a long ride a woman picks up a hitchhiker. From the very beginning the man does not come across as trustworthy and the woman, anxious and feeling the growing threat, decides to pick up one more person. In the confined space of the car the three strangers begin a tense game. The characters hide some secrets that, revealed in small steps, will lead to tragic events.

Total length of the screening 81 min. In original language with Czech and English subtitles.
