Wouldn't it be nice if you got what you wished for? The Birthday Wish is a wonderfully dark gothic tale about a girl enjoying her birthday in her own way. The Birthday Wish is about those times when you just want nothing more than to be left alone.

From concept to completion in just 16 days, The Birthday Wish was made for the Bafta '60 seconds of Fame' competition where it was shortlisted to the regional finals. Shot on HDV with a zero budget and a skeleton crew the mansion consisted of a series of digital mattes added in post production in a series of marathon 20 hour editing sessions.
