Private Project

Leaf Bug

A man walks through a field and becomes a huge leaf bug. He sees through bug eyes and is free to fly in the sky with his wings.

Leaf Bug was filmed during Covid in the cornfields of PA.
We imagined what it would be like to become a bug and be consumed in an endless sea of nature. It is our commentary on isolation and the loss of connection.
