Siobhan (2017)

A man's girlfriend has been sexually assaulted and murdered around the time of a pagan sun festival. A year later he journeys to the sea-shore where she died and sees her ghost. He then meets a nearby farmer and his enigmatic wife who offer him shelter. A build-up of strange tension leads to a release. An atmospheric suspenseful short about love and loss. Has grief driven Robert mad or can eternal bonds exist beyond the grave? A strong sense of mystery is at the core, and though hinted at, nothing is ever fully explained. Location was important to feel the force of nature, to feel of an aspect of life bigger than us all. The sea was of primary importance as the cinematic gateway to the unknown. The devastating impact of rape and murder on not just the victims but those who love them.
