'A Way Out' is a 2011 short film made by Stian Hafstad as part of a directing course. The film stars Diogo Cronemberger, Sunmi Cho and Tianyi Li. The film revolves around a young boy (Cronemberger) who wakes up to discover a mysterious disturbance in his room.
When making this film, Hafstad had to stick to two rules, and these were that it had to be one continuous shot and that there had to be no dialogue. It's only just over two minutes long but I think he does a good job considering he wasn't allowed any dialogue, it feels like something out of an episode of Doctor Who. The best bit is the score by Kevin Macleod, I think he did a really good job at making up for their being no dialogue. I'll say this though, it by far isn't the best short film I've seen, but it definitely isn't the worst. He could have done a better job at getting the story across to us, there's one gaping question right in the middle that doesn't make sense.

I'm going to give 'A Way Out' 6/10.
