The Hedgehog


A young boy wanders a deserted urban landscape dressed in a home-made Sonic the Hedgehog outfit.  On a superficial level this film is very simple but is in fact an extended metaphor about how life can run away with itself once one is caught in a rut and by the time one realises, it’s too late.  Written and directed by Chris Lee and Paul Storrie, Hedgehog was nominated for the British Council Best UK Short Film at London Short Film Festival 2015.
