Psycho-Thriller | 29 min 00 sec | 2026 | HD
Melodies of the Abyss has been honored with numerous awards, including Best Thriller Shorts, Best Picture,
Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Cinematography, Best Production Design, Best Make‑Up,
Best Editing, and Best Original Screenplay.
It is a 29‑minute psycho‑thriller inspired by KURT COBAIN’s death at the cursed age of 27.
Three decades later, the mystery refuses to settle — suicide, conspiracy, or something beyond imagination.
Rather than offering answers, the film confronts that uncertainty by imagining Cobain drawn into a surreal encounter with a shadowed figure — a symbolic embodiment of the contradictions that continue to haunt his death.
This project was created with one purpose: to reignite attention on Kurt Cobain’s case — and nothing more.
DIRECTED by: Sam Iwata aka LIU

Creating films that speak to the human soul has never been easy. Today, it is harder than ever. Independent cinema fights against shrinking budgets, vanishing screens, and a culture that often rewards noise over meaning.
Every frame we make is carved from sacrifice, every story carried forward without the shelter of studios or sponsors.
Your support is what keeps these films alive.
A donation is not just funding—it is resistance against silence. It is a stand for authenticity, for art that dares to reach deeper. It is a way of saying: films that speak to the soul must continue to be made.
Help us endure. Help us keep creating.
