Please Don't Go Looking

About This Movie

So, 'Please Don't Go Looking' is an interesting piece. It's an experimental short that really dives deep into Iain Delavan's personal battles with PTSD stemming from childhood trauma. The tone is haunting, and the pacing feels deliberately disjointed, almost reflecting the chaos of a mind grappling with such heavy themes. It makes use of practical effects that, while not flashy, really add to the rawness of the experience. The performances, though limited by the short format, are raw and impactful, conveying a sense of vulnerability that's hard to shake off. It’s a film that sits with you, challenging the viewer to confront uncomfortable truths.
