Short Films, Drama, 09-Jun-2026
A young woman arranges viewings for her one-bedroom house, which she may not be genuine about actually renting. Ryan Leedu directs “No Bedroom,” a character study that builds intrigue with an ordinarily mundane task that raises questions of intent. At first it seems like a typical situation: a woman planning an extended trip tries to sublet her home. She gives tours of the fully furnished space—first to a tall, soft-spoken man who works at a car dealership and then to a gregarious woman in agriculture. But something begins to seem off when the showings end with no resolution. It’s a film that explores a living space—books, plants, neighbors—and the things we reveal or hide from one another. Perhaps it’s loneliness or longing for human connection that motivates the woman, or maybe it’s something more strange. -KA. Director: Ryan Leedu. Cast: Cassandra Paige, Moe Makki, Alexandra Dawkins. DP: Bob L'Heureux, Prod Designer: Brianna Kolybaba.
