BENIDORM short film

A young mother and her daughter live in an out-of-season seaside resort void of tourists. One lives by night, working in a hotel, and the other by day. They never cross paths and their only link that maintains any sense of common life is a walkie talkie.

Benidorm is my first narrative short film. It was shot in the spring of 2016 in Benidorm and Valencia, Spain. The whole process of making this film lasted almost two years in total, from scratch to screen. I was very lucky to meet my two beloved actresses without whom this film couldn't be what it is.

I wish to thank from the bottom of my heart the whole team that made all of this adventure possible:
