Lycanthropy Audience Feedback

Obsessed...

...with finding a missing girl,..

...a troubled detective compromises his partner...

...and his moral code.

Lycanthropy is a dark investigative thriller short film, which follows detectives Mark Kessler and John Mills, as they search for a missing girl in a suspected case of child abduction.

The story starts in the middle of a crime investigation. We meet the detectives as they wait to search the residence of a key suspect, Mr. Johnson. However, Johnson does not cooperate and as the police don't find any hard evidence, the case is at a standstill.

Kessler is troubled, both in his private and his public life. His vocation has taken a toll and over the years, he lost his family. Yet, he struggles, helpless in the never-ending, unrelenting battle against daily evil. He needs this case as well as a purpose, and ends up making a decision that changes everything.

Chasing through London’s rough underbelly, Kessler has his macabre worldview confirmed and chooses between law and justice, between his partner and his ethos. 

In the end, it becomes difficult to tell who the real villain is...

Lycanthropy has been screened at festivals worldwide, receiving 11 awards and 38 festival selections. The film can now be seen on ShortsTV, the world’s largest platform for short films.
