Director Statement

Death of the Gods is a film about growing up and realising that your parents aren't as powerful and superhero-like as you think they are.
From being these unmovable giant figures in our minds that can move mountains and do anything, to realising they are just normal people.
We wanted to create a piece that sees the positive in this transformation, that hugs the vulnerable person behind our idea of them.
