Do quiet rooms whisper of those who wait?
Have you ever felt trapped in a moment? Your ears ring with the sound of your own heartbeat, your face dripping with sweat, echoes bursting through your ears so loud and relentless they’re almost paralyzing. Have you ever felt afraid of the unknown, afraid of what’s next? Lost in the struggle to please everyone, you’re left unable to recognize yourself and your purpose. The passion, compassion, and love that once burned so fiercely within you slowly fade away. You end up so consumed by the weight of the expectations you carry, you forget to live.
Yet, even in the quiet of that struggle, in the deafening silence that haunts every room it passes, there is always a glimmer of strength that never goes out. The question still stands as you regain control: Do quiet rooms whisper of those who wait?

The idea of this micro short film came to life when a bunch of film lovers decided to meet up and experiment with the Arriflex BL 16 - 1965 and Kodak Vision 3 250D. To best capture the complexity of the theme of this short film, shooting on film felt like the perfect opportunity to bring this vision to life.
