In the Bedroom | Award-Winning Fantasy Horror Drama

In the Bedroom is an award-winning contemporary drama blending fantasy, psychological horror, and emotional realism, starring Alex Candlin as Jesse and Neill Maxwell as Connell. Selected at festivals worldwide, the film has already earned major recognition, including Best Fantastic Short Film at the Golden Lion International Film Festival, Best Student Film Honorable Mention at the Athens International Monthly Art Film Festival, and official selections at Lancaster International Film Festival, LA1 Shorts, and the San Francisco Arthouse Short Festival. This haunting short follows two young men — the athletic, volatile Jesse and the introverted, self-loathing Connell — as they struggle with loneliness, emotional dependency, and the lingering psychological effects of the digital age and lockdown. Their fragile bond is tested when a supernatural entity feeds on their isolation, fragility, and deep-seated fears, pushing their relationship to its breaking point. The film features an unsettling and immersive soundscape crafted by Sound Designer Adam Lawrence, with a score by Bailey Newington, inspired by György Ligeti’s Lux Aeterna. Director Antoni Konieczny grounds the story in themes of same-sex intimacy, youth loneliness, and emotional ambiguity, while the cast delivers raw and intimate performances. ✨ Festival Selections & Awards • Golden Lion International Film Festival – Best Fantastic Short Film • Athens International Monthly Art Film Festival – Best Student Film Honorable Mention • Lancaster International Film Festival – Official Selection • LA1 Shorts – Official Selection • San Francisco Arthouse Short Festival – Semi-Finalist 🎭 Cast Jesse – Alex Candlin Connell – Neill Maxwell Spirit – Felicia Chu Concerned Whisperer – James Brook Lonely Whisperer – Nick Goldwin 🎬 Key Crew Writer & Director – Antoni Konieczny Producer – Nick Goldwin Cinematography – Bailey Newington Sound Design – Adam Lawrence Composer – Bailey Newington Editing – Bailey Newington & Joe Saunders VFX – Konrad Kobus Production Design – Alisa Wang Wardrobe & Makeup – Lili Kurzfeld
