CGiii Comment

Dating is a monster

IDLE/WILD is a narrative short horror film about ANNIE (Charly Dannis; she/her, femme and fluttery) and BERIT (Elena Heuzé; they/them, charmingly unkempt) who, on a whim, have decided to have their first date in the woods. At first, Annie's nerves and Berit's cool aloofness threaten to ruin their day before night falls. But their growing attraction, and the uniqueness of their chosen meet-cute, start to bring them together. That is, until Berit notices that something's up with Annie beyond first date jitters. Berit starts to lose time, and lose their head - not just to Annie's charms but to something deeper, darker, and more sinister out there in the woods. At least, Berit thinks the danger is out there in the woods...which drives them into Annie's tent, her arms, and a fate it's too late to escape from. When morning comes, a different Berit emerges.
