The FILM: Jinxed (2016) (Short | Thriller | Drama | 14 min)
Jinxed tells the story of a young lady (Nisha Kalema) whose night turns into a nightmare that begins with a simple enough task, to get her sisters medication from the neighborhood pharmacy.
A string of unfortunate events quickly follows, that take her out of the frying pan and into the fire. It's a night she'll never forget as everyone she meets on that night seems to have ulterior motives, with each event getting progressively worse than the last.
