About the film. Catrina is a classical period ghost story set in 1910. Inspired by true events and the Mexican tradition, El Dia De Los Muertos-The Day of the Dead. Catrina is a visually stimulating Tim Burton esque film with inspirational notes from the film Frida. We believe this to be a ground breaking experimental short film, which is expected to reach many prominent festivals and make for a great calling card for all involved.
Logline. Having lost the love of her life, and unable to bear the pain, Catrina commits a mortal sin in the eyes of god and the Church. Her moral transgressions have condemned her to a life of suffering and loneliness. But it is said that hunger for love can transcend time.
