Nomination for the short film “Stay” at Vespertilio
“STAY” by Luca Canali is nominated for the Best Short Film Awards at the Vespertilio which will be held on May 24th, 2025 at the Teatro Mongiovino, Rome.
Vespertilio Awards
The Vespertilio Awards is an Italian cinematographic recognition of the Horror, Crime, Thriller, Noir, Science Fiction and Fantasy panorama.
The short film
“STAY” was born with the intention of addressing the most severe of mental symptoms, the second leading cause of death among young people, which paradoxically is spoken about very little: self-injury and suicide.
“Just graduated, Laura works as an usher in her mother’s theatre. The razor blade is her only companion. As she faces her dreaded control round; she discovers that she is not as alone as she thought.”
