A haunting collection of short films that ventures into the uncanny corners of identity, memory, and human connection. Through stories of grief, desire, folklore, and the unknown, Witch’s Lament, Plaything, Han, and Rabbit Hole invite audiences into worlds where what lies beneath the surface can be both unsettling and transformative.

An innocent 20-something Clem is courted by charming Kevin, but as Clem falls deeper, he begins to realize their relationship isn't just imperfect, but something far more sinister.


Director Biography - A.B. Allen



A.B. Allen has crewed in film and television around Los Angeles for the past nine years on productions for HBO, Amazon, Netflix and AppleTV+. In their own writing and directorial work they have a specific passion for horror and telling stories for marginalized communities through a genre lens. They are very grateful for the opportunity to collaborate and bring Chris's vision to life with Plaything and hope the audience is able to connect with the themes of the story through the wealth of craft brought to the project by a team of talented and brilliant creatives.
