Programmers’ Choice Award
THE DEVIL'S HARMONY
Dylan Holmes Williams
A bullied teenage girl leads an a cappella club on a trail of destruction against her high school enemies.
THE DEVIL'S HARMONY is the short film that I didn’t know I always needed. Truly. I was in a perpetual state of leaning in as I watched the story unravel, and when the film ended (striking a perfect chord), my jaw hit the floor. Dylan Holmes Williams is a masterful filmmaker who knows how to use every tool in his arsenal. Haunting sound design. Exquisite cinematography. Spot on casting and performances. Every element of this film is perfect, and they all work together in perfect harmony. — Erin (Artistic Director)
