Your Street

The film starts with the narrator wanting to establish a connection with the viewer. Showing the viewer that life has many commonalities regardless of who you are or where you live. You soon realize that the narrator is not talking about you, specifically, but through you to someone who resides on the other side of your reality.

The narrator makes it appear that we can all be this person, and as the film progresses, a connection is made between the viewer and this person. The tone starts to get darker, the words more course. You begin to feel like the narrator is telling you the details of your own demise.

You are now the story being told rather than something separate from it. As the narrator continues, the perspective shifts from who you are and what happened to you to how you are viewed—describing how the street named after you has largely been forgotten. How because of the curiosity of one man and his knack for storytelling, your legacy can continue.

[Note: the film pays homage to a young Turkish girl who was killed mercilessly during 1990s]

The Echo

It was such a fantastic film, being only three minutes, the film did not seem to miss anything with its abundance of visuals and storytelling. In those three minutes, artistic elements such as improv dance and spoken word stood out, commanding your attention.

This film was an interesting perspective on what it feels like for a person with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder to navigate their environment.

Oldboy’s Apples

I like how this film is only stop-motion animation but can still be visually unsettling. All I can say is, you did an excellent job. This filmmaker and crew are very talented at what they do.
