Valkyr is excited to share that The Trunk has been officially selected for HollyShorts 2025 and FilmQuest 2025.

Directed by Craig Blair and produced by Fiona Hardingham and Adapted Pictures, the film stars Lamorne Morris (New GirlFargo) in a genre-bending story that blends horror, comedy, and friendship against the backdrop of the 1970s desert.

The story follows Mitchell (Morris) and his best friend Steve (Kyle Shevrin) as they race through the desert with a mysterious Book of the Dead at their feet and something even more troubling in the trunk. As old wounds resurface, the line between emotional baggage and something far more sinister begins to disappear.

Valkyr was proud to support the production, helping bring the project to life with production equipment, vehicle support, camera systems, G&E resources, and guidance throughout the process. From desert chase work to studio pickup shots, it was a fun challenge and a great collaboration with the Adapted team.

Congratulations to Craig, Fiona, Lamorne, Kyle, and the entire team on the film's festival launch. We're excited to see where The Trunk goes next.
