ABOUT OUR FILM:
Genre
A gripping drama or thriller has never failed to grab my attention and shift my eyes to the
screen. I’ve found as I’ve experimented with the films I’ve watched, I always noticed how
much more compelling the stories and characters were in dramas and thrillers. Movies
such as “Manchester By The Sea” and “Good Will Hunting” are two specific movies that
fixate on a connection between its characters and the movie's subject topic that I found
incredibly complex and human which is what I focused my attention to when it came to
writing this short movie. Wanting to deliver characters that not only connected to the
audience through being relatable, but by having them stand for a message the audience
can then reflect their own lives upon.
Plot
Our story revolves around our protagonists, Mark and Faye. Two high school sweethearts
who had to disappear from each other's lives and were forced to move on before they even
had a chance to talk about the future of their relationship. Suddenly, they’re reunited after
their work lives collide and they’re forced to speak to one another for the first time in 10
years. Now, this is a story that’s been told time and time again throughout cinema but what
makes it so different this time around?
The catch of the story is that on paper these two characters are still perfect for each other.
Everything they loved, enjoyed and were passionate about… it’s still there. The experiences
they shared together are still deeply rooted in their memories and their individual love for
those shared memories and what made them so special are even stronger 10 years later.
However, the twist is that the traumas both Mark and Faye have experienced since their
initial breakup could derail their chances to explain to one another why they had to break
- up and in addition, spoil any chances of them rekindling their relationship.
