Shoot Don't Shoot
An instructional film on when to shoot at a victim and when to wait. The film plays with instructions for real action, but also explores the short film's distinctive narration and structure, the rising tension resulting from unpredictability. Identifying the subtle sign indicating the need for action acts as a parallel for the act of finding reference points in cinematic storytelling.
