RISK is a powerful short film featuring standout performances from Joanne Bradford and Jordan Mifsud. I have high hopes for this doing very well at festivals. Important and vital storytelling. The ending packs a mighty punch. If you get the opportunity to see this brilliant short, take the "Risk" and go!

Great film, beautifully filmed, brilliant performance by Joanne Bradford .... and what an unexpected, shocking twist. It had us talking for a very long time after we'd finished watching it. It will change people's lives if we can help get it seen far and wide. Highly recommended.

This really is an engaging short film, gripping form start to finish. The shots are beautifully put together, to create remarkable cinematography. The story and messaging are clear with a fantastic little firework thrown in at the end, which enhances the captivation of the film. Well worth watching, a brilliant piece of work by Luke Bradford.

Powerful, provocative, educational and entertaining. What more could you ask for from a short film? This film makes a difficult message easy to spread with fantastic acting, direction and cinematography. Brilliant work.

A great take on an interesting subject. Everything about the film was consistent with the message and executed very well.

Fantastic film. Really well shot, fantastic editing, punchy grading, and a really hard-hitting twist hammering the message home. A must-see film.

I had no idea what to expect before I watched RISK and I wasn't expecting it to be such a thought provoking and also chilling short film - the performance from the leading lady Joanne is outstanding. I urge everyone to see this film when it begins its film festival tour

RISK is a stunning short film by Luke Bradford. Beautifully shot, captivating story with a powerful message that needs to get out there for everyone to see/hear. Brilliant performance by actress Joanne Bradford and a shocking twist in the end that left me speechless at first, then prompted hours of discussion on the topic. Fantastic piece of work all around.

As a stand-up comedian and comedy writer myself I thought the use of humour was brilliant. It was beautifully shot, you captured fantastic performances and you totally suckered me with the twist. Excellent short film.

A must see! Wonderful acting and fast-pace film that keeps you thinking. Amazingly shot film. Excellent acting from the lead Joanne Bradford.

RISK is by far the most gripping, powerful and beautifully shot short film I've ever seen. Captivated from the start, I very much look forward to seeing more works from talented writer/ director, Luke Bradford.

What a powerful metaphor and important tribute. My jaw dropped, all the feels!! Bravo, so well done.

A brilliant short film from talented director Luke Bradford, and lead actress Joanne Bradford. Beautifully shot and edited, and captivating throughout - with a twist at the end you wont see coming. All the more impressive in tackling a difficult subject-matter in a surprising and powerful way, that leaves a lasting impression. Joanne Bradford is excellent in the lead role, with a strong support cast. Highly recommend.

RISK is A MUST SEE!! Brilliantly and beautifully shot short film directed by Luke Bradford with a stunning and powerful performance delivered by Joanne Bradford in her role as Sara de Lacy.

I know from the posters this was a short film about someone's wife entering a MMA fight and everyone trying to talk her out of it.

And I was sort of rooting for her; to do her own thing; not to be pressured by her friends and family to give up; not to be forced to quit by her husband. I really wanted her to prove them, and jeering gym-jocks, that they were all wrong.

As the fight-night gets closer, small things become seemingly more significant (the bell ringing in the pub sounds a lot like the start of a fight). And I did find myself absorbing some of their concerns. Her friends are concerned, because they love and care for her, right? Her husband is concerned for her ... or is it more for himself?

But if you think you can imagine how the story pans out, think again. It's genius.

It left me thinking about it, long after the credits rolled.

For a film that lasts only 10 minutes or so, it really packs a punch.

There are some films that when you see them a second time, maybe some years later, you might say to yourself "I can't remember if I've seen this film before?"

Not this film. You'll remember this film.

You'll Definitely remember this film.
