ONE CALL
CHANGED
EVERYTHING
Single mother Corina buys a second hand phone which has a SIM card wedged inside. When she tries to remove it, the phone begins to ring.
Times & Measures
A claustrophobic Hitchcockian thriller entirely set in two locations, a family home and isolated woodlands. When mother Corina and daughter Melanie wake up one morning to find a ‘sorry’ note from husband and father Desmond, the two are left desolate. Struggling to find work and with bills piling up, Corina is becoming desperate and in a fit of anger smashes her mobile phone. She is forced to buy a cheap second-hand phone, but upon returning it home she notices a sim card still wedged inside, when suddenly the phone starts to ring.
Times & Measures pushes the boundaries of feature-length narrative fiction in cinema, focusing solely on the relationship between a mother and her daughter, struggling in hard times. Prepared to do anything to keep them afloat, when one missed call turns into an opportunity to escape this torment the two are living in, Corina is left with no choice but to accept the offer, taking her on a dark and dangerous path that could destroy everything – or help them to survive.
Full of dark twists and turns, Times & Measures is a feature film that will give audiences a viewing experience like no other.
