So, there's this short film called 'ALIEN' by Thiago Gutierrez, set in an Argentine high school. It's got this intriguing mix of adventure, comedy, and mystery that really pulls you in. The pacing is kind of deliberate but it works—like it lets the tension simmer just below the surface. You’ve got this new student who shakes up the usual dynamic of the group, which is classic high school stuff but with a twist. The humor is subtle, often arising from little moments that feel very real. It’s the kind of film that captures the awkwardness of adolescence while weaving in a thread of suspicion that makes you lean in a little closer. The practical effects are minimal, but that adds to its charm, making it feel grounded yet slightly off-kilter. It's definitely one of those films that stays with you long after the credits roll.
