'Promised' Movie Review

The following movie review was kindly posted by Frank over at Bobba_Fett1138.

Promised (2012) Directed by Bulent Ozdemir

This is being one exceptional shot short movie, that should not pass by unnoticed.

Even while probably chances are you not constantly going to fully understand what is going on at the moment on screen, you still get a grasp of its importance and gravity through its intensity. It's an intense short, shot in an extreme tense way, with some dynamic camera-work and a wonderful, effective, dark atmosphere.
It would help to first read what this movie is supposed to be all about, since it will help you to understand things that the movie doesn't just spell out everything for you. This is not a complaint about the actual movie but more as a friendly warning to those who are planning to watch it.

'PROMISED' - A True Collaboration

3 out of the 5 people in the above picture are actors. The remaining 2 (Plus the person taking the picture) are crew. We had a shoe string budget for food, a donation that I made personally to the location and balls the size of monkey fists.

But none of the above matters. The reality is that no one really cares about how your film is made or the blood, sweat and tears that goes into the process. It's all about end result. The reason I mention these numbers is because I feel my super small team deserves to be highlighted for their efforts.

faith/fāTH/

Noun:

Complete trust or confidence in someone or something. Strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof.

Faith is a highly sensitive subject matter and one that to this very day causes wars, acts of terrorism and inhumane violence. It also forms the basis of the most controversial short film I will probably ever make - 'PROMISED'

The story is set in a real world environment and touches upon a certain promise one Archangel made to another before the creation of Man. A moment that would change the fate of these two 'brothers' for eternity.

Let me enlighten you a little further with a fictional back story:
