Broken, The

Sean Ellis, who was nominated for an Academy Award for his short film "Cashback," has created an excruciating and stylish fantasy thriller combining careful Hitchcockian development of the atmosphere with Polanski-like identity terror. The visually hypnotic film won an award for its cinematography at the Sitges Fantasy Film Festival in 2008.
