The supernatural noir thriller The Absence has won this year's Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival award for Best Horror/Suspense Film.
Written and directed by Alex DeMille, The Absence is his MFA thesis film project for UCLA film school.
The storyline follows Benjamin Moss (Matthew Rauch), assistant manager in the Records Department of Black House Securities, who is sent on a mission to a mysterious and barren rural landscape. There he crosses paths with eleven-year-old Jonathan Gardner (Jan Uczowski), a boy who is beginning to wake up to the dark forces devastating his town. Ben confronts the truth behind his company's work and must choose whether to continue to obey his messianic boss (Larry Swansen).
