48 Hour Film

Fragments, a 48 Hour Film created by Team Waxjar as part of this year’s Two Short Nights Film Festival will be screening before Arrival this week in Studio 74 Exeter Phoenix.

The film was written, shot and produced in just two days as part of the annual film challenge which sets teams the task of responding to a brief, genre and prop. 

Fragments tells the story of  a spaceship, which crashlands on a forested world, the lone surviving crew member must flee for her life to protect the precious, but deadly, cargo, from an evil space villain who pursues her. The short film features Bethan Highgate-Betts who was awarded a 2016 short film commission for her film Pink, which also premiered at Two Short Nights this month. 

Venue: Studio 74, Exeter Phoenix
