BLACKBIRD

João Paulo Miranda Maria | France | 2025 | 21 min. | O.V. in French, subtitles in Spanish and English

Hafsia Herzi (winner of César Award for Best Actress) portrays an enigmatic woman who arrives at a campsite deep in the forest in winter. There, she crosses paths with two other lost souls while trying to fend off the ominous presence of a blackbird that seems to follow her every step. Inventively staged, João Paulo Miranda Maria (awards at Cannes and Chicago for previous shorts) adapts an award-winning comic (Angoulême Comic Festival) into a chilling short about loss.
