247 Degrees North
This entry for the London Sci-Fi 48 Hour Film Challenge is fantastic for its location, costuming and cinematography alone, but the nearly naked blind chick with the power to make people spout poetry with a touch of her fingertips to the temple is a confusing and intriguing figure that shoves it right over the top. And what does she want with that baby?
