Three friends. An urban legend known by one of them from his grandmother about a source of luck. Yes, it sounds tempting but the risks are not so reduced.

But, the mix of curiosity and needs are good kick to risk.

Like in many fairy tales, the swumpwater has a guardian . Not real polite, not exactly cruel but too correct.

So, one of them survives for the noble cause who determines to ignore the source, after, to drink from it.

The good motif to see the film - the witch. Inspired mask, precise interventions and wise crafted comunication with the poor last pal.

The last scene, seed of so many questions, defines this short film about luck and its price.

The horror genre features stories that aim to elicit fear, suspense, and a sense of dread in its audience. Horror stories often explore themes related to the unknown, the supernatural, and the macabre, and they frequently evoke strong emotional reactions such as anxiety, terror, and unease.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
