Ruby (Short)

Ruby is a 17-year-old girl who has left home to live with an older man. Enigmatic Frank is on a spiritual quest, rejecting society to live freely – an alluring prospect for a restless young girl looking for adventure.

When Frank's thin façade of enlightenment starts to crumble Ruby finds herself deep in the woods far from anywhere. Hope and excitement turn into confusion and fear as subtle coercion begins to undermine Ruby's hold on reality.

With the sand shifting beneath her feet only one thing is certain - this will become a defining moment in her life.
