SHELTERED, 9min, USA, Thriller/Mystery
Directed by Jake Gutwillig
A boy stuck in a storm shelter with his parents must question their reality, and find a way to leave to find the truth of the world outside.
Director’s Statement:
‘Sheltered’ is about trust, and the honesty shared from one generation to another. There’s a lot more as well going on, but the core I wanted to explore was finding the balance of truths in what we see compare to what we hear, and the importance of self discovery.
