Brilliant! Seriously awesome!
The idea and script are genius. The lighting is very, very good. The acting is very, very good. The camera use is good. You probably know and hated yourself for not getting the manual focus completely perfect in some scenes (the torture for example), but that is critique at a very high level.
In all seriousness, I would not be surprised if someone told me this one was up for a short film Academy Award. I'm deeply impressed.
Keep going! I will follow you on vimeo!
Out of interest: Since I'm working on postproduction of a very long project (no budget, as always): How did you do the music? I don't suppose you had an orchestra play it for you? But how else? I am almost done with my editing and am going for the soundtrack soon.
