⭐ Featured Review
A Rather Simplistic Short Horror Film Out Of Egypt.
"After attending to an injured goat along the bank of a cursed brook. An adolescent Egyptian boy finds that he has evoked the wrath of a beautiful siren. Despite his mother's warnings...he gives in to his desires. But it may just be the last thing he ever does... At just over 10 minutes in length, this short film from Egypt is rather simple. Yet effective. It was screened as part of the 2023 Cannes Short Film Program. 3 out of 10...."
