Victim’s macabre film and poetry

Karina Vetrano starred in a 2013 short film in which she played a sultry, conflicted woman who slits her wrist with a razor.

The film, based on Vetrano’s own poem, “The Paradox,” was adapted by her screenwriter pal, Petros Georgiadis, and turned into a six-minute film.

It’s described on IMDb as a “story of two people, Angel and Sinner, each battling an inner demon. Opposite as they seem, both people and their demons are more alike than it seems.”

The film focuses on Vetrano and a male character who reads her poem, which tells the story of a person who is just as much an angel as a sinner.

“I am an angel full of purity. I am an angel yearning for maturity. I am an angel whose wings are so wide, ready to take flight,” she says before giving the camera a blank stare and saying, “I am an angel with a dark side.”

She is later seen playing with a metal razor blade while she has flashes of an intense sexual encounter with a man before taking the sharp object and running it across her left wrist right next to a tattoo of a cross.

“The Paradox” was one of many posts she put up on her personal Web site, including one reflecting on the possibility of dying young. “Have you ever found solace in the thought of dying? Not in a suicidal way? It’s just . . . Sometimes when I’m feeling really sad & lonely and misunderstood I wonder, if right now, at this age & this time of my life if by some freak accident I died, what would happen,” she wrote in a post called “Porcelain.”

Hours after learning of her shocking death Tuesday, Georgiadis wrote on Instagram: “You were an absolute light who brought a smile to anyone who was in your presence.”
