Little Annabelle is a science fiction drama short film by director Olaf Saumer , based on a short story by his brother Martin Saumer .
action
The 22-minute sci-fi drama tells the bizarre-absurd story of the Schönborn community, who want to have a child created artificially at the “Lifesense” company. But their biggest problem is the money they need. Therefore, some savings need to be made. Savings that the doctor forces on them because they do not have the money to buy a very talented child.
The short film Kleine Annabelle is a bitter future vision with satirical exaggeration. But the core of the film remains shockingly close to the trend that is already emerging today.

The film is a low-budget / independent production and was made without film funding.
