Director Statement

Many people dream of being someone else, someone greater than they are and achieving more than their dreary life offers.
The grass is always greener on the other side an many of us look into the windows of our neighbours dreaming that our lives were ours.
Our film tells the story of two neighbours and the lengths one goes to in order to achieve the life of the other.
Our film is a Neo-Noir ‘Hitchcockesk’ thriller- comedy we intend to be stylish; nostalgic of the golden-age of cinema and haunting. We used vintage lenses, a de-saturated colour palate and fluid movements to create our own timeless universe.
