Ari Aster is known for bringing two gems of modern horror to life: Hereditary and Midsommar, before moving into modern political satire with the releases of Beau Is Afraid and Eddington. But before he launched himself into contemporary cinema’s lexicon of modern auteurs , Aster produced  a number of highly acclaimed short films that have all the trademarks of his fresh and daring style.

Although they fall into a range of genres, Ari Aster's eight shorts all feature some of the director's recognisable characteristics. From sickening tales of abuse to comical stories told by compelling characters, Ari Aster's short films deserve to be in the line-up for the world-famous talent's best works.
