Apparently, finding information about this short film isn’t all that easy. It was released in 2006 after winning the Special Jury Prize and the Best Actor Prize at the AAU Film Festival of 2003.

Produced by Shining Light Pictures, who produces short films as well as commercials and especially music videos in Los Angeles, the film was directed by Julian C. Guillen, who also stars in a supporting role.
The script was written by Guillen himself together with Shining Light owner Joe Lam.

I must admit that the story is quite typical of the noir genre. I wouldn’t say there’s much original in here, not the storyline, not the characters. But honestly, it’s typicality might be what I appreciate the most about it. And anyway it’s a solid plot with sympathetic characters and that’s what any story should be able to offer.

Hope you’ll enjoy it too.
