Haunted by grief, a man asks questions only the recently deceased can answer. The dead get their say in the hidden chamber of a mysterious pub. You may not like what you hear.

Baghead was selected as a finalist at the Manhattan Short Film Festival in 2018.

Representing United Kingdom, this film joined a diverse international lineup that year. View all 2018 finalists →
Short-film discoverability remains limited compared to feature-length releases. For Baghead, check platforms that specialize in short-form cinema: Vimeo Staff Picks, MUBI Shorts, the Criterion Channel short film collection, and YouTube channels like Omeleto. Direct streaming URLs for individual short films change frequently, and no permanent viewing link is guaranteed. Searching for Alberto Corredor Marina on these platforms may surface this and other works by the same filmmaker.
