Luke & the Void

A lovely short film about loneliness, refuge in dream, serious project as compensation of troubles at school and absent presence of parents. And lovely portrait of friendship. A film about ... a little thief , serving his ambitious project, familiar to many from us in real serious way. Short - a little gem. Off course, a lovely one.

The actor of Luke, Fergus Prentice, had us hooked from the beginning. He commanded the audiences attention and emotional investment after his first appearance on screen. The costumes were superb I hope they let Fergus keep his space suit it was iconic. I watch this film a lot and every time I notice another detail in fergs acting. I would reccomend watching this film! The rocket effects at the end are very good and very convincing. The chemistry between Fergus and the other actors was sublime. The story was immaculate and perfectly portrayed. The part where he makes a sandwich is fun and rumour has it the director made that sand which when he was younger.

A movie that not only hit home but knocked it out the park. This felt like an exercise in the known that went further than I ever could.

The acting was gripping and believable, chemistry between actors noticeable and felt. The artistic choice to use Fergus Prentice's (The title character Luke) eyes as a way to demand the audience attention was clever, made only better by his way to show emotion through such subtle expression. By the time we saw the full extent of his acting we were hooked. I personally can not wait to see more of this actor, perhaps a return to the screen is needed?

Excellent.
