A while ago I posted here about our Finnish indie Lovecraftian film Majakka, asking for help and support from the horror community.

Since then, the project has continued to grow. We have shot more material, built sets, gathered an amazing cast and crew, and pushed this strange little lighthouse nightmare further than we first thought possible.

Now we finally have a new official trailer to share.

Majakka is a dark, atmospheric psychological horror film set in the early 1900s. It follows a man drawn toward a mysterious lighthouse, obsession, old rituals, and something far beyond human understanding.

The film is still in production. Filming continues this year, and the project will carry on into next year as we work toward completing it properly. It is a very ambitious indie project for us, but everyone involved has given so much time, talent and passion to bring this world to life.

To everyone who supported, shared or commented on the earlier post: thank you. It genuinely helped us keep going.

The light is calling.

Hey everyone,

I recently made a short film and I’d really appreciate your feedback.

🎬 What I’m looking for:

- Story clarity

- Editing & pacing

- Overall impact

- feedback

This is my first/one of my early projects, so any suggestions or criticism will really help me improve.

A short documentary exploring mental health through the eyes of ordinary people navigating real-life struggles. Filmed and directed by Will Craig, the documentary gives a voice to those whose stories rarely get told, capturing raw and honest human experiences without actors or scripts.

Please let me know what you think of the documentary. Watch on a big TV for the best viewing experience. Thank you for your time.

I am from India. I spent time in Loliondo, December last year, on a clean water project at Bright English Medium School and ended up making a 37 minute film about the school's founder, Juliana.

For anyone here who does not know the school, it is in northern Tanzania, in the Maasai community of Loliondo. Juliana started it 15 years ago in a rented house with a small group of children. The school now has over 500 students. She has done all of this with very little outside help and a lot of stubbornness.

I am not Tanzanian and I know this is a story that belongs to your country, not mine. I just had the privilege of being there long enough to film it. If anyone here is from Loliondo or has any connection to BEMS, I would love to hear from you. If anything in the film feels off, please tell me.

The film is in English and Swahili with subtitles in English. Free on YouTube. Phase 1 of the water project on school grounds is complete.

Everyone remembers what it felt like to stay somewhere a little too late and suddenly realize you might not be alone...

Logline
"An apprehensive college student working a night shift at the library asks her supernatural-obsessed classmate to dispel an entity before closing."

The film blends suspense, folklore, and character driven storytelling. If you enjoy similar TV/film like Stranger Things, Gravity Falls, The X Files, or IT, then you would also love Ex Libris.

Please consider my team to make this project a reality!❤️
