'Safekeeping' by David Yorke is an absolutely gorgeous, emotive and well-acted short film. The cinematography is stunning, locations too. The relationship between Charlie and Jessica, played by Charlie Price and Jodie Price, real, faceted and heart-warming to watch, even with the unexpected twist climax of this film. Jessica's love, care and protection of Charlie, and who is really is rather than what he could have become, that should be cherished. Heartbreaking and heartwarming in equal measures. Great work by all involved.

It is very difficult to say why this short film is real special.
First , I suppose, for the great acting of Jodie and Charlie Price.
For impeccable construction of tension and for the the great cinematography. For emotion, to, from the light honey -like to the sirens. Or for shocking, at first sight, end.
An intense film about a special journey, a ball of happiness and a terrible gesture, absurd at superficial perspective but essential for its status reminding , in some measure, Of Mice and Men.
Short , a small gem.
