El Doctor
2006
Synopsis
In a crumbling 1920s Mexican hospital, patients with bizarre afflictions are in constant need of medical attention, but the miserable doctor in charge prefers to drink. However, an encounter with the Saint of Holes will rearrange the doctor’s fate, sending him on a journey of altered perspective.
Editorial
Shot through with ticklish dialogue from a dipsomaniac medic and unorthodox saints, this short is as comical as it is grotesque. With hand-painting from fellow experimental filmmaker Naomi Uman, Suzan Pitt twists the path to salvation, transforming it into a miniature house of horrors.
