Dreams
The man suddenly wakes up in a forest. He is scared but he gradually relaxes with both body and mind. Sensations help him fusing with the nature. In the dream there is no shame, no limits, no fear. At the end, he takes off his clothes, lies down, closes his eyes and disappears. Before he was a body, now is he air, water and wood.

I believe that the best way to learn how to make a film, is to experiment as much as you can. I have always loved matching ideas to a specific sound or music. I got this song by the music artist Hi.Mo and I got immediately images in my mind. I took the camera, asked my dad, and went in the nature. As I was listening the music, I got ideas and I just tried to make them as similar as what I had in my head. As my passion is editing, I wanted to experiment different cuts and effects. I fused images and music in order to make the best balance. The story came by it self.
