Small World

A psychological thriller short film set in a hair salon.

Inspired by the “Pasternak” segment of the 2014 film Wild Tales.

Director - Writer

Small World unfolds over a single afternoon inside a quiet hair salon, where three women arrive for routine appointments with the same hairdresser. As their conversation drifts into an old, half-forgotten memory — a rumor from a party years ago, a name once spread online, a silence one of them chose to keep — the mood shifts from nostalgic to unbearable. What they don't realize is that the man cutting their hair has been waiting for this exact afternoon for years. The film is built on what's never said: no accusation, no explanation. Just a door, quietly locked, once the truth finally surfaces.

Shot in Madrid at the Sectros de Aguas Hair Salon, June 2026. 8:09 min, 16:9.
