Dagblind (2022)
Short Film
TRT: 09:19
Synopsis
Entangled in a dark dream, HIM finds HER searching for the true meaning of happiness. When HIM begins to lose himself in his everlasting search, he is confronted with the truth about his reality.
Insight
This project started from the idea to create visuals for my music. While brainstorming and writing the initial idea naturally grew into a short film. We wanted to make our generation's destructive pursuit of happiness a central theme of the film and decided to make the narrative of the film revolve around two lovers. Segments of my poem 'Too Involved' were used to narrate the development of their relationship.
