The Package


This is amazing. Set in near-future Los Angeles it tells the story of a stake out. Yes, you have probably seen a million stake out movies before, but stay with it - this short film (which clocks in at under ten minutes in legnth) is not quite like any of those others you have seen.

It looks as if the cops have the upper hand - their technology is, it seems, everything they need to track the delivery of a mysterious (but no doubt illegal package) and to arrest the traffickers.

Or so they think. 

A huge thumbs up to diretcor Calder Greenwood and everyone else involved in this taut thriller.
