ReelHeART Director Review Comment: “Students of SFX make-up for film need to run to see this experimental short. I certainly didn’t expect that treat. Almost 2 films in one. Part graphic novel – – part, “The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover”. From make-up, to set design, a very “artistic” film. ”

(Warning: Coarse Language, Full-Partial Nudity, Sex – 19+ Only )
Why not work for an escort service and make a lot of money? She’s already had plenty of bad sex, but was never paid for it. Lea employs this iron-clad argument to win over her best friend, Hanna. They then plunge into an adventure between day and night.
ReelHeART Director Review Comment: “Not since the Romanian/Belgian film ‘4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days‘ have I felt a complex, believable, tension filled female relationship on screen where living daily with a secret made me invest in a film so quickly. Bravo to the beautiful leads Anna Rot and Magdalena Kronschläger. Superb acting. Terrific chemistry. Thank you for letting me visit your on-screen world…”
