*AUST PREMIERE*
What if you called your old phone number... And your younger self answered?

This is the dilemma facing Jessie Grave, a bored, beautiful and rebellious eighteen-year-old girl. As she tries to discover who killed her mother years before, Jessie discovers she has the power to talk to her younger self, in the past. Cryptic is a brilliantly scripted sci-fi thriller, which is flawlessy realised through Kuchuck & Weiner's tight direction and strong performances from the memorable cast. While constantly twisting and turning, with a plot full of puzzles and surprises, the film never loses sight of the characters at its heart.

"Cryptic outthinks movies like Primer & Timecrimes by a mile! This is a precise, exhilarating piece of work that seems to send the brain to new places." – Whitney Ransick (Director: ER, Smallville, Supernatural)

Accompanied by the short films:
A Treatise on the Nature of Friendship (Dir: David Fishel/8 mins/USA)
Hirsute (Dir: A. J. Bond/14 mins/CAN)
