Omeleto releases DoorStep on its YouTube streaming channel. Omeleto is the home of award-winning short films. We showcase Sundance winners, Oscar noms and critically-acclaimed filmmakers from every genre. Watch the film on Omeleto
“DoorStep has a serious subject at its center, but at its core it’s about the violation of trust and love that is supposed to be at the heart of family, and how it obliterates the sense of security and personhood of those who were violated. The film has a strong, almost brilliant way to represent the way a person can feel invisible and dehumanized by what’s happened to them: here, the victim is given only one shot — a POV — in the film. Like the rest of the short, the creative decision is brutally simple in its concept and execution — but says multitudes about how abuse can erase its victims with silence, secrecy and shame.”

DoorStep will screen at Cinema Village in NYC @ 7pm as part of the 2019 New York Independent Short Film Festival.
