ANDZEJ GAVRISS ‘MALARIA’

A short film written and directed by Andzej Gavriss is a soulful exploration of the problem of homelessness in LA. The concept comes from a metaphore of how a small insect could turn your life upside down in a second. The symbol of a tiny mosquito carrying a deadly virus turned into a fixed idea, that eventually translated into this short.
