Adjoiners

About This Movie

Adjoiners is a quirky little gem from 2021, crafted during the 48 Hour Film Project. You can really tell they leaned into the soap opera vibe, full of family drama, hidden agendas, and a hint of murder that keeps it light-hearted. The pacing is frenetic, as one would expect in a project on such a tight schedule, but it somehow adds to the charm. You get these over-the-top performances that are almost self-aware, which is part of what makes it distinctive. It’s not heavy or overly serious, and the practical effects, while modest, fit right in with the absurdity of the story. Perfect to showcase the creativity that can bloom when you throw constraints into the mix.
