Quiet Please is a psychological horror short written and directed by Nic Stanich, starring Anna Sitar in her debut acting role. Set against the high-pressure world of competitive tennis, it explores ambition, obsession, and the terrifying unraveling of a young athlete under pressure.
Since its premiere, the film has screened at the Beverly Hills Film Festival and other festivals, earning awards and recognition for its unsettling tone and Anna’s breakout performance.
Created independently and entirely self-funded, Quiet Please embodies the kind of bold storytelling we believe in — personal, strange, and unafraid to take risks. I also love tennis. By watching and sharing it, you’re not only experiencing the film’s journey beyond festivals, you’re also helping us build toward the next project. And importantly: every cast and crew member receives a share of the profits. Supporting Quiet Please means directly supporting the artists who made it possible.
Thank you for all of your support!
