Released last Christmas, the 38-minute short film ANOMALY, continues to create waves among independent film-makers and as regarded as THE model to follow. The short film produced by Jens Jacob of Sypher Film, is a Nativity story centred around the modern, intertwined lives of the characters during an astrononmical event.
However what makes ANOMALY intriguing is more than just the story but how it was produced and distributed. Financed largely from a 60K Kickstarter campaign, it nevertheless delivers superb cinematography and effects on par with million-dollar productions. And everyone can watch it for free on Vimeo. The producers have opted to admirably offer it online for free rather than go the film festival route.
Watch it and enjoy.
