an Oriental story

A bar. a man. and a stranger. telling a story. creepy, usefull. jyst a confession. or testimony. so familiar to viewer. in its lines. in its essence. the film has two great good points. the minimalism. the feeling to be a story from deep childhood, from a market from Bagdad or Samarkand. a story about life. and its price. at first sigh reminding the pact with the devil. in essence, a faith and hope story. about choices. the end... . it could be surprising. because you imagine it in worse images. but it is perfect. for a real good horror. for the image of American misterious stranger from bar. for a smart short film mixing Edgar Poe and Sheherezada.
