Director Statement

Making this film in under 48 hours was an incredible experience, unlike any other. We worked with an amazing writer, Paul, who was in the Netherlands and we talked through FaceTime to get the script done overnight.

He put together a beautiful story that blended sci-fi and romance, and we put together an amazing cast and crew to bring this magnificent story to life.

In 48 hours we made one of the best shorts out of 138 in LA and won the Audience Award.

I feel like we took a feature film concept and condensed it into a 7 minute film (not including credits). We have a powerful story that brings out emotions, and creates empathy in the audience. It astounds me how we were able to put something so short and powerful together, it's reminiscent of Twilight Zone and Black Mirror.
