He (Jamie Wilson) has just stolen a fortune, and to get away scot free, he decides to bury the loot on a beach for the time being, after all, no evidence, no way anyone can pin the theft of him. Problem is, whoever he has robbed has long figured out it was him and sent his bloodhound (Andrew Shintler) after him, and that bloodhound has his very own idea about poetic justice ...

Clocking in at a mere four minutes, this is a movie that doesn't trouble itself with too much (or indeed any) backstory but trusts on the audience grasping the situation as it evolves (and rightly so indeed), basically presenting us with a thriller miniature with a macabre twist - which is the film's main raison d'être - and all of this works, too, because writer/director Jamie Wilson doesn't just bank on the short's punchline but does treat us to atmorpheric shots and a slow buid-up of tension worthy any decent genre piece, making this one a really enjoyable watch.
