It's a drama about a husband and wife in the 52 hours after tragedy strikes. I wrote, produced, and directed it. I also did a little editing/sound design/sound mixing here and there. Shot on Super 16mm film, it is 13 minutes long.

I also think it may have been worth it for the lessons learned and the knowledge I gained while seeking a "holy grail" to fix things (which didn't exist). Side note: if I could make one non-production change in hindsight, I'd have had the child in critical care for a few hours before passing away, providing more of an arc for the couple. Ext.
