  • I Origins - Beyond This Life (short)

    What happens when we die? That is the real question. And within the film I Origins, latching unto the understanding of reincarnation through Hindu beliefs, it is the loss of each person that makes it harder to let go. We move on, but through Ian's shame of still feeling attracted to Sofi, even seven years after her death, shows that our

    minds attach ourselves to this hopelessness of feelings and emotions.
    There is a connection in life. So why can there not be a connection through death and rebirth? The concept of the mind, the soul, outside of the physical realm of our bodies, makes us question that there is surely more to life than this. The cycle of consequences, of Ian's actions, of Sofi's inactions, bring forth how connection can go further than our bodily selves. And in the film, it is represented beautifully through the eyes.

  • Peter Pan Theory (short)

    In the tales of Peter Pan, why is Hook always trying to go after Peter? Is it the usual aspect of child vs adult, child like wonder vs reality? Or does it have a darker theory where Hook is actually trying to save the Lost Boys from Peter Pan because of the loss of remembering where they come from, and the promise of never growing up in Never Never Land...

  • John Wick and The Ferryman Of The Underworld (short)

    More lore can be found, if one looks for it, making the vicious underground world John has to go back to seem like Alice's fall in Wonderland. Charon, the Hotel Manager of the Continental, reminds John Wick of the importance of neutrality in his hotel, of no rule breaking, no killing or violence within the establishment on punishment of 'termination of club membership'. This can perhaps be

    like Papa Midnite's rules in his club in 2005's film 'Constantine'. Going further, Charon, in Greek Mythology, is the ferryman of Hades, the protector, of sorts, of the underworld. Hence, in the scene when John pays Charon in a gold coin, Charon places it in his pocket, as a payment for safe passage.

  • Leave No Trace | Warmth Of The Hive

    Living on the outskirts of society, in the wilderness could seem like a dream.

    However, within this story of a father and daughter, it is simply a way of life. It can be observed that there was an unstoppable force driving Will, the father, to constantly move and change his routine, even his walking patterns. His daughter, Tom, trusts his insights and knowledge of how to survive without a second thought.

    In this trail of breadcrumbs, where we follow their story and understand their way of living, we watch Tom embrace the eventuality of change whilst Will cannot. There is this learning that although a parent in there for their child, it doesn't mean the child must think like their adult counterpart.

  • Never Never Land (short)

    We all know about Peter Pan, the boy who never grows up. But what about the concept of Never Never Land? Why is it even called that? Is it so you can never forget the adventures you have with Peter, or is it so you can eventually forget about where you came from?

  • John Wick - Your Worst Nightmare (short)

    "...John Wick comes from a place where criminals rule. He comes from a place where underground overlords have eyes everywhere. Where criminal masterminds shower themselves in riches and greed. Where the only people 'that matter' are the ones that possess too much power.

    Where the only people left are either some of the planet's finest assassins or the scummiest dealers. John lives in a world where there is no humanity. No compassion. And certainly no mercy. He lives in a world corroded
    by sin. And dirt. And the only way to outmatch the dirt is to become even dirtier. And that's what makes Wick the most dangerous man alive. The underground overlords can't always see him. The criminal masterminds can't buy him. The thugs with too much power can't hide from him. The
    assassins certainly can't kill him. John Wick is what makes
    underground overlords look behind their back twice. John Wick is what makes masterminds shiver behind their gold. John Wick is what makes thugs with too much power feel weak. John Wick is what makes assassins feel powerless. So to answer your question, the boogeyman may haunt people's minds through nightmares...But even the boogeyman has a nightmare. And its name is Baba Yaga"
