Synopsis
“Caul” is an ambitious fifteen-minute short film based on an old Polish folktale. Set in the mid-seventeenth century, it tells the story of Piotr, born late one night with a caul over his head (what we would now know as the amniotic sac).
This being a terrible omen that your child would become a vampire, the parents must keep the caul, dry it, grind it and feed it to their son, Piotr when he turns seven. This will prevent him from becoming a vampire.
On his seventh birthday, his parents sit Piotr down for a ‘special birthday meal’. But he refuses to eat and kicks the food away, ruining it. Now there is nothing to stop him from turning…
We’ve raised some of the budget through IndieGoGo but we’re still looking for help to reach our proposed budget. If you want to get involved, either to help financially or information about working on the shoot please contact me.
