MALak (very short film)



An interpretation exercise set by university to get us thinking. The script revolves around a woman tormenting a male victim with a mysterious object called MALak, although 'MALak' could be anything you choose. Our interpretation goes along the route of a dream sequence/Hallucination, the man could be suffering from post-traumatic stress or some kind of mental illness... or maybe there some dark magic in the works.

Overall this interpretation exercise did its job by getting me back into the swing of moving image, this piece could have benefited through a more thought out script and then concentrating on one specific treatment to apply to it, we suffered as we couldn't decide upon one treatment and ended up with a mixture of many. To add more purpose to the plot a scene at the end which revealed he is infact talking to him self would have added some much needed closure.
