CGiii Comment

S.I.D.S. stands for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. It's the title of one of Louise Weard's first short films, set entirely in a hotel room where a person (the Patient) is about to undergo an orchiectomy after discovering they’re pregnant. But due to a mysterious event, the doctor who's supposed to operate on them faints: something terrifying is about to happen.

With just a few elements, Louise Weard creates a small world-story in which the uncanny and the horrifying seem almost tangible. It's a film in which genre doesn't exist.


There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
