VOICES

Everything that dies comes back… someday.

While reconnecting with old friends, a mysterious voice and chilling song force a woman to confront her tragic past.

 

DEWEY DECIMALS

Tick, tick, tick. The red hand tiptoes round the face. Six o'clock. Time to begin.

A man with sinister intentions watches a librarian go about her tasks.

 

RABBIT SKIN

If you can't see them, they can't see you…

A young girl tries to make sense of her grandmother's death, and her grandpa's actions thereafter.

 

THE WALNUT TREE

Something nags at you. Something snarls and snaps and nips at your insides, making you pause…

A teenage girl comes home from school to find that something unsettling has changed in her parents' demeanours.

 

RUATAPU RIVER

The river remembers us as we remember it: the canoeing, the swimming, the paddling… It even remembers the drowning.

But how much is memory, and how much is imagination? And can intuition really precede death?
