Experiencing Interruptions?

BY THE WAY

“By the Way” is an experimental short film about a terrific love story governed by the societal strains and personal anxieties of two post-secondary students (Toun and Fred) doing all they can to study overseas. As an orphan, the fear of the unknown that kills faster than death itself survives as Fred’s innate bet during a mid-night robbery. Toun, on the other hand, becomes a specimen of glory, driven into calamity by her nonchalance.
