🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Clifford Olde's short film constructs unease through stark contrast, placing innocent childhood play against a bleak industrial backdrop. It relies on vérité-style camerawork and sparse sound to explore how the group dynamic of boys can curdle into something ominous and unpredictable.

What lingers after viewing is a sense of disquiet, as if you've witnessed a private ritual that was never meant to be seen. It's a potent, unsettling study of innocence's dark undercurrent. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Clu Gulager

Watch alone in the afternoon, where the daylight contrasts with the film's gathering gloom.
