Whether I like it or not, every narrative short film I direct is an exploration of myself. Yes: through this exploration of the self I allow my audience to vicariously explore themselves and the world around them, but each film starts with a desire to explore some facet of myself.
NIL is about the world-crushing feeling of betrayal. I have (thankfully) never been cheated on, but I understand what it feels like to be betrayed in a close personal relationship. The pain is ever-present; although time closes the wound, it never really goes away. While I believe experiencing betrayal is essential to personal growth, I wanted to explore what it might feel like to forget my own experiences of it.
