A lively look at the history of the twice-risen, twice-fallen London-based Polygram Filmed Entertainment, which in its heyday produced such titles as Fargo, The Usual Suspects, and Four Weddings and a Funeral.

In August 1961, speleologists from Italy’s booming North arrive on a Calabrian plateau where time stands still. The intruders discover one of the world’s deepest caves, the Bifurto Abyss, under the gaze of an old shepherd, the only witness of the pristine territory.

Short horror film produced by Lorne Gross of Showflicks.com, directed by Raha Shirazi, written by Adam Kenneth Wilson. Post-production by Justin McConnell of Unstable Ground. An exercise in atmosphere and mood.
