Private Project

Free Verse

Thomas Gideon has the heart of a poet, but he lives the life of a cog, turning endlessly in a circle from which there seems to be no escape. He is in a troubled marriage and a stalled career, but then, for just a moment, it looks as though things are going to get better. As usual, however, nothing is as it seems.

Director Statement

Nothing matters more in a civilized society than art. Without it, our lives become sterile and machine-like. Everything I create, including this film, is designed to spare us from that fate, to illustrate that humanity, without art, becomes less than humanity.
