Sol
Written & Directed by Carlos G. Gananian
2017, Brazil
Gananian-the auteur behind the compelling vampire short film Akai (2006)– delivers a fresh take on the possession movie with Sol.
This short is a slow-burn viewing experience that delivers while it plays like the opening of feature film.
Akai
Written & Directed by Carlos G. Gananian
2006, Brazil
Brazilian auteur Gananian creates a memorable and atmospheric take on a familiar horror genre antagonist in this dark short film.
If Matthew Garrett-maker of the disturbing Beating Hearts-made a vampire short film, it would likely feel similar to this particular work.
Akai shows Carlos G. Gananian’s tremendous growth in the wake of his previous horror short films Behemoth (2003) and Coagula (2005).
He went on to make the shorts Am/Fm (2014) and Sol (2017).
