STARTING FIRES
DirectorJosh Triezenberg
“What begins as a moment of reckless fun between siblings quickly ignites into a waking nightmare.”
A psychological horror short that follows Julia, a high schooler who, in a moment of carelessness, causes a tragic accident involving her brother, Ben. Fleeing from the fire she created, Julia escapes into the quiet suburban night, but she can't outrun her guilt. Her panicked escape plunges her into a terrifying liminal space where a familiar voice calls out from the suffocating darkness, forcing her to confront the horrifying consequences of her actions.
