Soul Forest (Short Film) - Released

Written and Directed by Hugo Andre (one of the company Directors), Soul Forest takes on an ambitious storyline set in a dystopian future. It follows four main characters who have been placed into a realistic Virtual Simulation as part of a new programme for prison inmates seeking parole. The Simulation is a test of their behavioural issues and characteristics in hope that the programme can more accurately determine whether inmates are suitable for rehabilitation into a functioning society.
