The Last Fifteen Minutes

A kaiju is coming…

The Last Fifteen Minutes is a marionette opera short film about the residents of a shitty apartment complex dealing with their grief and gathering for dinner in the fifteen minutes before a giant kaiju crushes them.  It is a film about holding on to simple things and each other while the world collapses. The Last Fifteen Minutes is written, directed and designed by Shing Yin Khor, and composed by Jay Ackley.

It is currently in early pre-production.
