Will Close, Manpreet Bambra, & Tom Cray

Comedy | Dark | dir. Kristian Fitsall

Dumped by his girlfriend, Doug's mental health deteriorates and he begins burying his problems, quite literally, in his garden; unpaid bills, dirty dishes, it all goes in, until what started as simple avoidance escalates to a murder spree.

Kristian Fitsall & producer David Freedman pitched for post-production funding for DON’T BURY IT during the first funding round of 2024our Kino Short Film Fund.

The short was produced by New Indie Film in association with Kino London.
