Kiarash Dadgar / Iran / 8 minutes
Synopsis
"A birthday party preparation is thrown into chaos by an awful event."
We’ll say almost nothing about “The Steak”, to preserve the viewer’s discovery of this silent story. Based on a single judicious sequence-shot, this short-film accumulates qualities. A writing & directing delivering a slow crescendo, dramatic and sometimes maybe cynical. A powerful sound. An elegant camerawork.
Thereby highly well presented, Dadgar’s concept gives to a strong theme a very personal touch.
Conclusion
These 8 minutes fly by and leave the audience speechless; a gripping little masterpiece.
C.A.
« The Steak » joins official selection for the Little Croco Festival’s second edition, nominated in the Short Film category.
