Drama, Short Films, 26-Aug-2025
Stalked by a sinister presence, a winemaker grows suspicious that her vineyard is being poisoned. “Buried,” directed by Nat Gee, is a 16mm drama where paranoia leaks into a woman’s laborious day-to-day duties. Eva sets forth into her vineyard as she prepares for an upcoming tasting event for potential buyers. A suspending string score plays as we watch Eva sense the disturbing force that’s afoot. She notices another one of her grape vines has gone bad, and there’s a dead crow lying next to it. While her coworkers express their disbelief, Eva grabs a chainsaw, chopping the vine down without hesitation. More tasks lie ahead, but her anxiety becomes increasingly intrusive as the event draws near. The film, shot mostly in bright exteriors, is a unique blend of psychological thriller and character study led by the intense performance from Lily Baldwin. -JM. Director: Nat Gee. Cast: Lily Baldwin, Johnny Sanchez, Melinda Tanner, Cliff Samara, Michael J. Burg, Jeff Ayars. DP: Alván Prado. Editor: Lindsey Nadolski. Costume Designer: Emily Chalmers.
