In a forgotten corner of the city, hunger takes many forms.

Gula is a psychological horror short about addiction, guilt, and spiritual decay.

When Abaddon, a homeless man, receives an act of kindness from a passing priest, he makes a choice that spirals into something far darker. What begins as hunger becomes obsession ... and then something far worse.

Part of the Septem anthology, Gula is a visceral descent into the sin of gluttony... where consumption is never just about food.
