What's it about...
Vince, a Dartmoor prison guard and father of one, comes across an abandoned kid’s bicycle on an isolated stretch of moorland road. With the sun setting, he sets off in search of the missing child.
Filmic says...
Jed builds such an amazing level of tension, he should hold classes on creating a thriller. Everything about this short works, and though end is abrupt, it leaves you wanting more, which is the key to good filmmaking.
