The story behind the film
I’ve always been interested in human connection and what it means to form a special bond with someone – whether that be friendship, romance or something else that cannot be described with words alone. I wanted to tell a story about connections and how romantic bonds aren’t the only important relationships we as humans can have. I think, what with romance being so highly promoted in media, that we tend to forget our friends and family can be just as important to us as our romantic partners and so that’s what I’m hoping for the audience to take away from Anne and Mo’s story – a reminder to cherish all the bonds you have formed with your loved ones and those so special to you, you cannot find the words to begin explaining your connection.
