Runner Up, Quarantine Creativity Film

LOOPY

Max Cianci, Anthony Peduzzi

Drawn to a mysterious window, a man decides to investigate a seemingly abandoned building. As he makes his way to the source of his curiosity, what he uncovers is worse than he could ever imagine.

Sure, we’ve seen films with the same premise as this one—but Loopy has a twist worth waiting for. Bonus round! This was even shot during quarantine. What did YOU do on lockdown? — Natasha Lewin (Programmer)
