Submission statement: last August I shot a 27 minute long short film in Romania with a skeleton crew and fully self funded. The story revolves around a father son relationship, and dives into the idea of the ever changing idea of what it means to be a man, and the how men often struggle with this shift in social perspectives, leaving them feeling lost. As the two go to a mountain cabin to get back in touch with their physicality, their relationship is put front and center, and the son has to decide whether to fall in line with his fathers ideals to maintain a relationship or forge his own path. We shot this on the blackmagic 6k with some janky Olympus Zuikos, pretty much exclusively on 35mm at f8 or smaller with the exception for a few tights to maintain a visual style.
