LOGLINE

Numb (2023) is an experimental short that attempts to discover a moment of peace within all the noise we share in the modern age. The film utilizes different forms of media and phone footage to document this feeling. Structured by the soundtrack, the film has little dialogue.

SKILLS LEARNED

  • Documented real-life moments while studying abroad in London. This involved walking for hours trying to catch moments of human connection. There is a patience you build when not knowing if something beautiful could happen any moment.

  • Structuring the film through sound and music to guide its thematic principles without depending on interviews to narrow the film's focus. The restraint helped create the film's fluidity, which is emblematic of the issues it discusses.
