“ There's simply so much to love with BITE…Co-penned by Worb with Alex Raiman, BITE holds on to the intimacy of its story while also sharing universal themes. Worb's direction is impeccable, vibrant imagery never masking traumatic wounds and traumatic wounds never displacing the wonder of this human being we come to care deeply about within the relatively short span of 14 minutes.
The lensing by Garrett O'Brien is inspired, a final shot in the film absolutely stunning in all its complexities and possibilities. Original music by Hal Rosenfeld perfectly complement's the film's narrative and production design by Caia Diepenbrock is somehow the perfect mix of pathos and wonder. " Quite honestly, everything here is sublime.
