REEK ‘Official Trailer’ | “Every secret demands a witness”
Full quality available to view now via the link in @shanivarner bio.*
Thus begins the official festival run for our short film REEK. We’ve spent the last seven months steadily bringing this vision to life, putting in hundreds of hours of painstaking work to build a project that far exceeds expectations and delivers an experience beyond what “should” be possible for a first-time director and a team with an unrelenting desire to craft the kind of captivating, visceral stories most only dream of.
Over the next few months, we’ll be sharing more from this world as we move closer to our official Q3 release next year, all while continuing to develop a slate of other films we can’t wait to show you. Thank you so much for your support, it means the world.
Now let’s keep making MOVIES!

Took my first 35mm test shots with the ARRI 435, shot on Kodak 250D.
Such a great learning experience, super excited to shoot more on this medium.
Appreciate @marcusmezzano for helping me test it out.
