Shot with just one Super 8 cartridge, with all editing achieved in camera and the soundtrack recorded before seeing the film. Made as part of the 2019 Straight 8 competition.

Inspired by Dartmoor’s corpse roads, this short gothic Super 8 film recounts the tale of two men’s arduous trek to deliver a coffin to its final resting place. But when they stop for a respite, their journey comes back to bite them.

“Technically it is a marvel and it stays true to what it is, unpretentious, clever and fun” – Roger Deakins (1917, Blade Runner 2049)
