‘The 3rd Letter’, Another OMFG Short Film Preems Online
BD music editor Jonathan Barkan tipped us off to a new astounding short film that he says carries “a dystopian feel with some great Cronenberg-esque moments.”
Entitled The 3rd Letter, the short is from award winning directeor by Grzegorz Jonkajtys (say that ten times fast) as has already been making waves at film festivals across the country (Sitges, Dragon Con, Holly Shorts, MIFFF, Saint Andrews, Chicago United, SF Shorts, Nevada). It’s a distinctive dystopian vision where humans utterly depend on bio-mechanical alteration to withstand the deteriorating climate. Sounds like a future that’s all too believable.
You can watch the short in its entirety inside. Tell us what ya think!
