When you love someone unconditionally you tend to become selfish; you want that person to never leave and be with you forever.
Lee, 25-year-old devoted son faced similar circumstances when his beloved mother falls into a coma due to a brain tumour.
Lee chooses to keep her alive on life support and takes care of her at home. In the process, he starts to neglect other things that matter, like his managerial position, the same job which is paying for the medical bills and financial stability.
With Lee's life falling apart, his mother visits him in his dreams, in a world where his mother is alive and well. She has a request that Lee doesn't want to hear. After hearing such a request, the next decision Lee makes will change his life forever.
The Story
Meetings | Transition Scene | Fantasy meets reality | The clean up for reality. | Transition continued |
---|
Since i can remember, I always thought movies were fake as we all have been told, but I never knew, most of the stories might just be true, especially those which fit in family drama. From my life right now, I'm in a situation where my life's transition is happening and I watch the generation continue, where the old dies and on the other hand a baby is born. That's why I get to witness some of the movies in real life. Where Release and Remorse shows the transition of life just like reality.
​
If we are making this film, my team and I will definitely try our best, we'll work from pre to post, focus on all departments , such as we are making our dream world more bright and vibrant and reality more dark and dull.
​
For this story, it requires powerful performance from the actors, we are also working hard on searching the best casts. I plan to explore the power of tracking and dolly shots, so we require long tracks and platform as well. After discussion with the DOP, he agrees and we are working hard on it.
We also plan to play with transitions in this film, such as heart rate monitor's sound in reality where it transits to not hearing it in the dream, and also dream's sound design we've tested in teaser and test shots
​
Making this short film I have two reasons and one message, first is to share the fear of knowing someday you'll lose someone you care about so much. Second is the courage of letting go something in the past, and the message is to "let go and embrace the changes to a new life".
​
This story is very close to my heart and I believe my team and I, can overcome the obstacles and complete it.
