Expanded from an unreleased short film of the same name that played at SXSW in 2014, Trey Edward Shults' Krisha tells the story of a woman's psychological breakdown over a 24-hour visit to her relative's house over Thanksgiving. Shults cast his own aunt, Krisha, in the lead, and shot the entire film in nine days at his family's house in Texas.
The film's camerawork, sound design, editing, and aspect ratio render it truly unique in form: experimental, yet accessible and fresh. It's the perfect example of what's possible with today's technology, perseverance, and a moving personal story to tell. At the heart of the film is the relationship between an estranged mother and son and the pain of giving up on your dreams.
