Bless me father for I have sinned...
The Confession combines a simple story with exceptional technical presentation to create a short that is truly more than the sum of its parts.
A local lad goes to church to confess his sins to the priest, what follows comprises the plot of The Confession.
To describe the story further would merely dampen its effectiveness but suffice to say it is well acted, wonderfully shot and (a virtue many short and feature films forget) knows not to overstay its welcome.
If you happen to come across it at a festival be sure to check it out.
