Synopsis:A
young boy spends his days hanging out with his older brother.
Artists Statement:I really like character-driven stories especially when those stories revolve around the character’s identity, relationships, or thought processes. As someone who is also fascinated by technology and its advancement I decided to make a film that blends the two together. I wanted to make a film based on the seven stages of grief and how our relationship with technology comes into play. The film is dedicated for people who recently just lost someone, especially someone close and to let them know that while moving on from their loss is difficult, they will be able to get through it in the end. I hope that people will sympathize with the main character when it comes to dealing with the loss of a loved one.
