Experiencing Interruptions?

The Floor Above

An aspiring writer pursues inspiration at any cost. The story is being narrated by a female figure, being in love with him, still, choosing anonymity, thus, writing poems on her vision of him rather on the contrasting reality. The character, poet, which we observe on screen, is the one seeking inspiration to write poems, whilst denying his bad experiences which influence his poems, up to the very moment he is tempted to give in to his dreadful past.

Director Statement

Great films are being made by great people. I want to join this group as well. I've tried my best so far wit this film, more films are on the way too, but I hope you will get something from this one too. Charle's Bukowski inspired me to create this character, so I would claim this film, even personal, as myself have empathized with his influencing poems.
