Ruth and her boyfriend are exploring an old forest known for lost stories for college. When a vicious storms hits, they get separated. Lost, injured, broken phone and a raging storm, Ruth finds shelter in a small cabin. Greeted by a lovely old lady who offers her some tea. But once the conversation sparks up about cannibalism, Ruth realizes she was never safe.
Director vision:
In every situation in life that turns out to be a difficult, scary, or intimidating, there is a brief moment when you realize the situation is not what you thought it was. I want to capitalize on this moment and extend it visually to the point of skin crawl, goosebumps, and a gasp from the audience. This will require very little physical action that would be standard in a horror short. However, this will require great emotional facial expressions, memorization of lines, memorization of blocking, and a great attitude.
