“
Mythic in scope, Keel creates a rich world where she deftly explores the interplay between life and death. ”

“
A lovely and haunting mythical short filled with magic and wonder. Keel does an incredible job creating a new world that feels both familiar and foreign. I was instantly drawn in by both characters, their simplicity, curiosity, and earnestness. There's wonderful tension that'll keep audiences at the edge of their seats, and a fair amount of sexiness throughout, without ever being vulgar. Really beautifully done. ”
