- A young girl tries to save her father in a world of dinosaurs.
EVIE is used with permission from Lake Martin Films. Learn more at lakemartinfilms.com.
Evie and her father live in a world decimated by nuclear war, and now barbaric marauders and genetically modified dinosaurs roam the countryside where they live, making it a dangerous, desolate place.
The relationship between the young adolescent and her father is also tense, as her dad attempts to teach her how to survive while contending with her natural sense of rebelliousness. But then her father becomes injured, and Evie must venture alone to a distant farmhouse to seek medical supplies, challenging Evie to recall everything she has pushed away just when she needs it the most.
Directed by Alex von Hofmann from a script written by Atticus Martin and Lukas Martin, this short action thriller balances dystopian post-apocalyptic suspense with a portrait of a father and daughter whose relationship has frayed. Much of that is a natural move towards independence as a child matures, but the separation process is made all the more complicated in a world rife with violence and terror.
Shot with a weathered, careworn visual style and often shrouded in shadows, the film takes advantage of the raw Australian landscape to establish a sense of emptiness and isolation in a ravaged world, with the storytelling carefully laying out suggestive hints of the larger threats Evie and her father face. There's a primitive natural beauty that sparks reverie and dreaminess in Evie, but the omnipresence of barbed wire fences hints at the looming threats, as do the otherworldly screeches in the distance. The writing and directing are excellent at both building the world and its inherent tensions. So when Evie's father becomes injured in an altercation and gangrene sets in and Evie must cross this perilous landscape on her own to find medicine and supplies, we understand this is no mere errand.
Evie faces obstacles on her own, and her curiosity and craving for independence and experience keep her out longer than necessary. But actor Melody Rom has a natural intelligence and toughness that makes both her rebelliousness and her resourcefulness believable, especially when she attracts the attention of two unsavory marauders -- and an even larger threat lurking in the shadows. In confronting these, Evie learns what she is made of, and just how well her father taught her.
Well-crafted, gripping and compelling, EVIE features many tautly suspenseful moments, but at its heart, it's a coming-of-age story of one girl testing the growing boundaries of her independence and strength. In the end, she demonstrates to herself and her father just what a fighter and survivor she is, and he comes to trust and believe in her -- so much so that she ends up being the most stalwart defender of their homestead, even when all other defenses have fallen. - Фільми й анімація
The suspense element in the film has been very well done, camera angles are superb.
Really enjoyed the whole movie.
Easy could have sat through another hour or more of this, fantastic, all round....
Brilliant. Great story, production values, actors, direction, design -- all perfect. Great creatures also. Excellent, succinct and to the point. This could be developed into a feature film. Bravo.
It’s written! We are working on it!
I would have grabbed the first aid kit and run, instead of going through it right away. But then, there wouldn't have been as much dramatic tension....
Well-executed and acted.
Story of survival.
The tension was enough
to keep me interested from
moment to moment.
5 stars / 5
The girl acted brilliantly!
i was lucky enough to see this at the cinema at a film festival... it's so good!
Forget film -- this would make an incredible series!
Yeah it has that vibe, i'm wondering what happens next .
The cinematography is great and I love the moments without unnecessary dialogue! ✌️
I'm impressed. This was actually really good.
WOW, that little movie is a real gem!!! I was sitting on the edge of my seat! Great acting, awesome special effects, i really like it!!!
What do you mean... isn't this the average day life of living in Australia?
yup! Every day out here in the wild wild west (oz)
Very exciting. All the elements of an excellent short film.
Also the foundation for an excellent feature film.
Masterfully crafted. Hats off to Alex von Hofmann (et al)! Many thanks for this artful wonder. 🦕🦖☮
Thanks - a very exciting short film - had us on the edge of our seats.
Well done. Scary as hell.
I really enjoyed this, and Melody Rom did well in this role.
Finally something fresh, with out the usual ''zombie apocalypse'' theme. Keep it up.
I haven't seen a single zombie short. I must be looking in the wrong place! Any recommendations?
Guess not lol.
Sorry did not see your question. I was hinting on the overall use of ''zombie themes'' being used in movies and games so on. I can't think of any zombie shorts off my head. @@j0j0kay
That was great so far! I could watch this more!
Very well done.
Good One, now for the sequel????
Really enjoyed the movie ❤❤❤❤
I seen a lot of movies
This is a gem
10/10 +
Why, just why would anyone want to genetically modify dinosaurs, did we not all see Jurassic Park 😩, oh, we hadn't gotten enough right😂🤭. Excellent and although familiar still different in its own right🙏🏽
Very enjoyable. Thank you.
Wow 😲 Love love loved it 😍 I am sad the short ended 😢
Hats off. Wowee! Great!
Wow! Just wow!
Great stuff guys
I thought I was watching Jurassic World trilogy. Great work by all Team. :)
Well done! Looking forward to the sequel! 👏👏👏
Wow, the things that can be conveyed with just hints.
A few puzzles. What's the point of walking around with a pointed rifle if you don't use it when your life is in danger?
Also, maggots are great at clearing away dead flesh, but they have to be clean. I wonder how helpful they are when not clean?
Beautiful and well done 🎉🎉😊
Nicely done.
I loved it!!! I wish so bad you could make an entire movie out of it!!!❤❤❤I love the father-daughter realitionship, their acting,the storyline, everything!
Great job cast and crew. Well done.
Tough situation she got it going.

That was really good, I would buy a movie ticket to see a full length feature of this!
STUNNING!!!!

Good entertaining story.
I'd love to see this expanded to feature-length...

Hi, is Ben Mortley still alive after those rendezvous with dinos?
If so, is he married?
If not, would he like to meet? :-)
Wow.........
Hey that's my name. McMillan. ❤❤😂
Edit: (spoiler) damnit the McMillans are dead! 😂 Such a good video tho. And the girl is very good at acting and is very pretty. 🤟✌️💛
how did they die? did they 9:09 themselves or were they eaten?
@@surajganiger2837 I think the McMillans were the already dead ones on the floor of that camper when she got maggots from their body? I could be wrong.
@@jaimelovemac88 icic thank you!
yeah it does look like a face 😭😭😭
Jurassic Omleto.

George Miller has left the chat.. jk jk. What an incredible short film. The end did not disappoint, but left me wanting more. 10/10!
George Miller is our hero! Mad Max was a big influence for the world.
Yes.. 10/10 !!!
I wonder the exact species of the dinosaur,are they based on Australovenator?
It was meant to be. But we ended up modifying a rig of an Allosaurus.
@@alexvonhofmannGot it, thanks for the answer !
What's this? GMO chickens?
{:o:O:}
I watched the summary
Kinda like Jurassic park.
👏👏👏👏😱💜👌🎬🎞🎥
Waz up!
Hey
Needed more mud on the Ute 😂😂😂
Yup. A - what? - 15 year old girl savvy enought to diagnose gangrene? and then smart enough to know that maggots might eat away the necrotic tissue? Slim chance. OK, maybe. She probably wouldn't still be alive in dinosaur world without some considerable smarts...
But every school child knows that maggots eat only dead flesh and necrotic tissue.
{:o:O:}
Children learn it in elementary school (in books). She probably doesn't go to school for a long time already, so she had to learn it from her father or corpses of other dead people she had seen during her life journey.
... as if this whole story with dinosaurs was even real and worth clarifying ;-)
It's mentioned relatively regularly in media so today's kids would definitely have a high likelihood of knowing it. Even more so in a world where you fight for survival on a daily basis.
Good luck with no guns
The King of Glory has risen.. Do you need help in your life, call on Him.. It will not get any more real than that..Ask and you will receive..
I’m surprised that this wasn’t some SJW film where the daughter just kills the dad just for being sick lol. A daughter helping a father? Please, like that would pass these days.
Username checks out.
Why bring your petty politics into the discussion?
Mozza! Sweet...
Really good! But why did she smash the eggs?
I’m so behind on omeleto omg last time I watched was the teacher protecting the young girl but she set him up n posted him online
