Inspired by Shakespeare's Hamlet, set in the old city of Valletta, Malta; this is a short film that explores dark, liquefied decrepitude. A sailor's son is damned to row a rotting boat back and forth across a hemmed harbour. Numbed by ineptitude yet spurred by guilt and expectations, tormented by the enseamed union between overbearing mother and weaselly uncle, the boy spirals down a foredoomed path. | film@lighthouse.com.mt | +356 21387900 | SEAN DECELIS | POLLY MARCH | PHILIP MIZZI | MANUEL CAUCHI | ILARIA FALZON | Composer: Ruben Zahra | Sound designer: Andrew Christie | Editor: Neville Attard | Director of Photography: David Pisani | Executive Producers: Roderick Muscat Monsigneur and the Malta Film Fund | Producer: Neville Bone | Writer & Director: Kenneth Scicluna | Lighthouse & Ashley. 14, Triq C.
