Short film picks up where Kubrick left off with The Shining.

Walkaway Productions are creating a new short film called "Sanctus" which is an experiment in "The Uncanny". The Uncanny is the name of an essay written by Sigmund Freud in 1919 and talks about elements that we find familiar, yet unfamiliar-- things that nag at our brain and stick with us when we experience them.

Stanley Kubrick studied this phenomenon and integrated a ton of it's elements into his version of "The Shining", which is widely recognized as one of the most heavily analyzed and haunting films of all time. 

Sanctus includes elements from the Uncanny, weaving a strongly-symbolic story without a concrete narrative. This results in a film that leaves the interpretation up to the viewer. It's an experiment in self-psycoanalysis. Each viewers experience will be uniquely theirs.
