Consurgo.
In this steampunk styled short film a girl loses the ball she’s playing with and it ends up on the street. Her father tries to get it back for her, but then something brutal happens. The girl, full of tears, doesn’t know what to think when a monstrous creature appears and seems to be after her and her father.
Consurgo is latin for ‘to arise’ and blends perfectly with the story. This sad story picks up halfway to something incredibly fantastic.
