Things, unsaid.

"Things, unsaid" is a glimpse into the minds of three young adults, reuniting after years. With the changes in colour of outfits with change in mood; there is awkwardness, passive aggression & a bit of flare with breaking the forth wall ever so often.
Its a scene from the lives of three people attempting to rekindle long lost friendships.

Director Statement

I have to get this out of the way, I am not a traditional filmmaker; I
wouldn't call myself a filmmaker at all. I like to create, be it a photograph, web design, print ad or a promo video.
'Things, unsaid.' came to me in a dream, It would've made my life easier if that was true. This short is an amalgamation of spoken word poetry, fashion and film. Dialogues in this film are open ended and meant to be relatable to each individual audience member, to make the experience personal as though it were a one on one conversation with all 3 the characters breaking of the 4th
wall.
The colour changes represent each character's inner motive - both
conscious and sub conscious.
Writing, directing and producing this short was a challenge and I have to say that everyone should experience something similar. 'Things, unsaid' is set in a jigsawed version of 3 rooms of each character & no doors.
This is to amplify that this is a part of the characters lives and there is no escape. The constant struggle between reality & their comfort
zones. 'Things, unsaid' is the first short film writtern and directed by me.
