This is the trailer for the new stop motion film from Edinburgh filmmaker Walid Salhab, director of the acclaimed short film Bra-et Al Rouh.

The trailer above features The Mound and Princes Street during a busy evening of shopping.

Here's the description of the film:

"Avaritia tells the story of a man trapped in a world of his own making and choosing. Obsessed by money, he has been corrupted by the banking institutions he works for. He is alone and continually searching for a companion to join him. When he sees a chance to possess a woman and make her his own things start to go awry."

The film was made with partners Robert Welsh and Ros Campbell for help and support. Robert acts and produces; Ros handles production and film publicity. Walid lectures in Media Practice at Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh.
