Review 'Portrait' is such a great piece of work. It is a story beautifully shot and hauntingly told. So often period short films fail due to bad costuming, set design or script, but this is the exact opposite. Would recommend.

Review I really love this movie and its dark narrative. The actors as well as the cinematography are spot-on. I'm also fascinated by the fact that it blends real events (the life and death of Elizabeth Siddal) and fictional element (from Edgar Allan Poe's legendary "Oval Portrait") to tell a facetted, feminist story.

Review This is an artistically shot piece, a film that very much evokes the era in which it is set through masterful costume, design and editing. At times slow but all the same a very beautifully told story.
